Scott McTominay could be given crazy bonus if he leads Napoli to Serie A title

Scott McTominay could be given crazy bonus if he leads Napoli to Serie A title

Scott McTominay has scored 11 goals in Serie A for Napoli, who are top of the table after 34 games played.

Scott McTominay could be in line for a sensational bonus payment if he fires Napoli to the Serie A title.

McTominay, a £25 million summer signing from Manchester United, has been a revelation in Naples and scored a brace in the 2-0 win over Torino to put Antonio Conte's men in the driving seat for the Scudetto.

Inter Milan suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at Roma prior to Napoli's fixture and McTominay continued his incredible run by moving to 12 goals for his debut season.

There are four games remaining in Serie A, with Napoli now three points clear at the top of the table ahead of fixtures against Lecce, Genoa, Parma and Cagliari.

Champions League semi finalists Inter, meanwhile, take on Verona, Lazio and Como in the league - which wraps up on 25 May.

If Napoli do get over the line, it will be their fourth Serie A title in their history after Diego Maradona spearheaded successes in 1987 and 1990 before they ended a long wait for a league back in 2023 under Luciano Spalletti.

And if previous form is anything to go by, a healthy set of bonuses could be in store for the squad. Two years back La Repubblica reported that Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis pledged incentives for winning the league - with players and staff all entitled to a sum.

Napoli owner has history of promising hefty bonuses

A year on and De Laurentiis was reportedly prepared to pay out bonuses of €10 million if they beat Barcelona to qualify for the Champions League quarter finals and secure a spot in the Club World Cup.

Asked by Guillem Balague of CBS Sports Golazo about the bonuses before the game, De Laurentiis said: "You are very well informed. It's more than €10 million, in fact."

Napoli were eliminated after a 4-2 aggregate defeat but then TMW claimed De Laurentiis was still willing to cough up with a tidy bonus if they secured a top four finish and qualified for the 2024/25 season.

It didn't happen as they sunk to 10th but the team have had made remarkable strides this season and now McTominay is dreaming of becoming a champion in his first season in Italy.

"It would mean the world, obviously the squad did it two years ago," he told DAZN.

"We mustn’t get too high, as now we are leading the race, but we’ve got to keep calm, keep everything relaxed and go game by game.

"This game isn’t important unless we win the next and the one after that. So let’s stay calm and see where it gets us.”
