Scott McTominay's remarks after Napoli's Serie A title win have cast a spotlight on the ongoing issues at Manchester United. The 28-year-old, sold for around £25million last summer, spoke of the 'sacrifice' made by every Napoli player in their Scudetto triumph.
McTominay scored 12 goals and provided six assists for Antonio Conte's side, becoming a talismanic figure. He opened the scoring in a 2-0 win over Cagliari that secured the league title, capping an unlikely campaign.
His comments contrast sharply with the situation at Old Trafford, where Manchester United have endured a record-breaking poor league season. They can finish no higher than 14th, with only 10 wins from 37 matches. The Europa League final loss to Tottenham means no European football next season for the first time since 2014/15.
McTominay described the Napoli experience as a 'dream' and said he took the opportunity without looking back. Alongside former United teammate Romelu Lukaku, he has found success in Italy, highlighting what is missing at his boyhood club under head coach Ruben Amorim.
