Sources in Italy suggest that Scott McTominay is experiencing some football fatigue, raising concerns about his fitness for Napoli’s home game against Fiorentina on Sunday at the Stadio Maradona.
The Scottish international midfielder has a minor muscle issue. While he is expected to be available for the Serie A fixture against Fiorentina, it is likely that he will not be in peak condition.
Reports indicate that McTominay will be determined to contribute and help Napoli break their run of five games without a victory this Sunday.
Sky Sport Italia also confirms that McTominay is not in top physical shape but is still anticipated to be in the starting lineup against Fiorentina.
Currently, Napoli holds the second position in the Serie A standings, trailing Inter, the league leaders, by just one point.
McTominay is Napoli’s second top scorer this season, having scored six goals in 24 Serie A appearances.
He joined Napoli last summer from Manchester United for €30.5 million on a permanent transfer, signing a contract that runs until 2028.
