Scott McTominay: Manchester United and Scotland midfielder joins Napoli

The deal is also beneficial to United because, as a homegrown player, McTominay’s departure gives the club more flexibility within the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability rules.

Manager Erik ten Hag said his feelings were “mixed” about the transfer.

“I’m very happy for him,” said the Dutchman. “It’s also [a good deal] for us, but it is mixed because I wouldn’t prefer to lose him because he’s Manchester United in everything.

“He was so important for our team, for Manchester United, but unfortunately it’s the rules.

“We have to discuss the rules, when you have to sell and obviously homegrown and academy players bring more value, that’s not the right thing to do.

“But I think for everyone, for all parts it’s a good deal. For Scott, he’s happy with it, for Napoli a very good player, but also for us.”

Napoli, who are managed by former Chelsea and Tottenham boss Antonio Conte, also signed striker Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea on Thursday.
