Scott McTominay could be set for crazy bonus after leading Napoli to Serie A title

McTominay in line for monster bonus after firing Napoli to Serie A title

Napoli hero Scott McTominay could be rewarded with a huge bonus for leading the Partenopei to the Serie A title.

McTominay and his Napoli teammates beat Cagliari 2-0 on Friday as simultaneous deciders were played to determine the league title winners.

The Scotland international and his former Manchester United teammate Romelu Lukaku each scored a stunning goal either side of half time at the Diego Maradona in Naples.

A spectacular volley from McTominay was followed up after the break by a glorious solo Lukaku goal to render Inter Milan's efforts in their game at ten-man Como futile.

Napoli finished a point ahead of the Nerazzurri and the players could soon be knocking at the door of owner and club president Aurelio De Laurentiis, who was on the touchline at full time ready to celebrate with an entire city.

Legendary movie producer De Laurentiis is an outspoken and sometimes controversial character who loves nothing more than a Napoli team full of winners.

He has previous for rewarding his players incredibly generously and the current squad will be well aware of his previous bonuses.

La Repubblica reported that De Laurentiis committed to bonus payments to players and staff before a title race that ultimately didn't go their way.

And he discussed the idea of bonuses with football journalist Guillem Balague when a Club World Cup place was still on the line in last season's Champions League last-16 meeting with Barcelona.

"You are very well informed. It's more than €10 million, in fact," revealed De Laurentiis when Balague asked him about the potential bonuses on CBS Sports last year.

De Laurentiis is sure to dig deep for Antonio Conte and his team of Serie A champions and McTominay was instrumental both in Friday's win over Cagliari and throughout the season as a whole.

His volley to break the deadlock on closing night was his 12th of the season and a 16th overall goal contribution.

The 28-year-old is already adored in Naples and has been labelled a 'genius' by the Italian sports media.

McTominay becomes a legend

Less than a year after leaving Man Utd, McTominay added himself to the ranks of Scudetto winners at Napoli.

Diego Maradona led them to two titles in 1987 and 1990, when Inter's city rivals AC Milan were their competition at the top of the table.

Luciano Spalletti led Napoli to their third title two years ago.

Conte has joined Spalletti, Ottavio Bianchi and Alberto Bigon as the Napoli managers who've won the league.
