Two-week break after heart operation of Napoli's McTominay
Naples' McTominay was successfully operated on his heart and is expected to take another two weeks off before returning to training. The 29‑year‑old Scottish international received the procedure at the Spire Manchester Hospital in England. The club's statement confirmed the complete success.
The procedure, a minimally invasive ablation (PFA), targeted a mild, benign cardiac arrhythmia. In the brief club announcement it was explained that the method deliberately scars the affected heart tissue to prevent future rhythm disturbances. The club emphasized that the recovery is proceeding as planned.
Medical Procedure and Recovery Plan
SSC Napoli informed that McTominay must rest for another two weeks after the procedure to protect himself before returning to training. Earlier this month the Italian champions had already spoken of a possible absence of about a month. The current break therefore aligns with medical recommendations.
Career, Market Value and Current Statistics
McTominay has been under contract with SSC Napoli since the summer of 2024, after having played seven years for Manchester United. He contributed to the Italian championship win in the 2024/2025 season. According to market‑value analysis his market value is €40.00 million, a figure that is frequently discussed in transfer and rumor forums.
His performance data include a total of 373 matches, 61 goals and 18 assists across all competitions. These statistics are regularly published in the club‑forum community, the Bundesliga forums and the sports‑betting analyses. The numbers reflect his importance for the league and the international scene.
At this year’s World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico, McTominay with the Scottish national team was already eliminated in the group stage. Scott McTominay, the central midfielder, showed his usual commitment despite the early exit.
The club communication emphasizes that after the two‑week pause a controlled training‑return plan will follow. Further updates will be provided through the official news channels, the video and premium service platforms as well as the player‑advisor and advisory‑support networks.
