Report – Napoli Handed Major Fitness Boost Ahead of Serie A ResumptionNapoli midfielder Scott McTominay is reportedly on the brink of returning to training after a major health scare. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Scottish star has begun individual training at Castel Volturno and could regain full fitness during September’s international break.The 2024/25 Serie A MVP suffered a major setback earlier this month when he was diagnosed with a benign arrhythmia. However, after undergoing a corrective ablation surgery in Manchester, the 29-year-old seems ready to return to action.McTominay’s impending return from the treatment table should come as a huge boost for Napoli amid Massimiliano Allegri’s poor start to life at the Diego Maradona Stadium. The former Milan manager could not have imagined a more challenging beginning to his tenure in Naples.Despite seeing off Genoa on the opening Serie A weekend, Allegri has overseen just two wins in five league matches this season. As if that’s not frustrating enough, Napoli suffered a false start to their Champions League campaign as they fell to a 1-0 home defeat to reigning Premier League champions Arsenal.Scott McTominay wasn’t at Allegri’s disposal since the second Serie A round, but there’s hope that he could be fit for Napoli’s must-win home clash against newcomers Frosinone on October 10. Given the circumstances, McTominay’s return cannot come soon enough for the four-time Italian champions.
