Scott McTominay Transfer from Napoli to Manchester United
Manchester United have been suggested as possible suitors for Scott McTominay in 2026.
According to TEAMtalk transfer correspondent Fraser Fletcher, the Red Devils have made contact with Scott McTominay’s agents over a potential return to Old Trafford. Napoli will demand a very large sum for a mid-season sale.
Manchester United are reportedly interested in bringing Scott McTominay back to Old Trafford, having accepted that they made a mistake approving a move to Napoli for the midfielder in 2024. It would cost around £44m ($58m) to bring him back. A £26 million ($34m) deal took McTominay to Italy, where he has become a Serie A title winner. Many people with connections to United have questioned why the Red Devils allowed McTominay to move on, and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is among those confused by a sale that was difficult to understand. While Solskjaer remains very supportive of McTominay, ex-United captain Roy Keane is not convinced that the Red Devils need to re-sign a former player. Keane said he is always wary when players leave for a club like Napoli, which is a different challenge to Man United, and noted that McTominay has done well. He wished the player good luck but was not convinced he would be the one to bring Man United back. Keane added that when a player is classed as a squad player, a £30m offer is not a bad deal.
According to Mark Brus, Manchester United are interested in re-signing Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay.
Manchester United are reportedly considering the possibility of bringing Scott McTominay back to Old Trafford. McTominay, who has strong ties to the Red Devils having grown up with the club and progressed through their academy, would reportedly find it challenging to refuse an offer to return. However, with United's current form and McTominay enjoying a successful period at Napoli, it remains uncertain whether he would choose to leave Italy. The Scotland international has been performing exceptionally well under Antonio Conte at Napoli, having scored 13 goals and provided two assists in all competitions this season. His performance has played a key role in boosting Napoli's chances of winning Serie A, which is a notable improvement from his time at United where he was frequently considered just a squad player. Despite United's need to strengthen their midfield, there is speculation that McTominay may be reluctant to return, especially considering the career revivals that other players have experienced after departing the club.
