Napoli Boss Antonio Conte Makes Admission About Scott McTominay's Man United Exit - Manchester Evening News
- Napoli manager Antonio Conte admitted in August 2024 that he was surprised the club secured Scott McTominay from Manchester United for £25.4 million.

- McTominay helped Napoli win their second Serie A title in three years and earned the Serie A Most Valuable Player award for the 2024-25 campaign, establishing himself as a club star.
