McTominay: Thanks Napoli and Conte, Describes His Best Day

Scott McTominay thanked Antonio Conte, saying the coach made a major contribution to his success at Napoli. The player said Conte had laid the groundwork the club and Italy needed so that he could focus on his job. It was noted that the Scottish international, who joined Napoli from Manchester United in 2024, adapted quickly to Italy.

Under Conte, McTominay won the Scudetto and the Italian Super Cup. He scored in the 2-0 win over Cagliari that guaranteed Napoli's fourth league title in 2025. The player described that night as the best day of his career and said he would like to live a similar night again.

The midfielder, who has been turned into a hero in the eyes of the fans, said he did not accept that label. He asked to be seen not as a hero but as someone who works very hard. He added that he has always enjoyed taking responsibility in big matches and critical moments, and that the pressure excites him.

McTominay argued that to reach the top of a career, one needs to approach football almost like an obsession. For him, what matters most is how he arrives at the training ground every day and what he does away from the pitch.
