According to Italian media, Napoli is paying special attention to the diet of newly joined midfielder McTominay. To ensure the player remains in optimal condition, Coach Conte has implemented a strict nutritional management plan and has assigned dedicated staff to supervise the players’ meals.
McTominay transferred to Napoli from Manchester United for a transfer fee of £25 million this summer and immediately became a focal point for the team. The magazine “Napoli Football” mentioned that the club hopes to ensure McTominay can resist the temptation of local delicacies, such as pizza, pasta, and various dairy products, to maintain his best physical condition.
For McTominay, this might not be an issue. He was known for his excellent physical fitness during his time at Manchester United, often ranking top in the club’s physical tests. His former teammate at Manchester United, now playing for Fulham, Andreas Pereira, gave him the nickname “McTerminator” to praise his robust physique.
Despite the strict monitoring of his diet, McTominay has quickly adapted to the new environment and demonstrated significant impact after joining Napoli. He made his debut against Juventus, and although the match ended in a 0-0 draw, his determination and diligence left a deep impression on the fans. Italian media “Football Market” even praised McTominay as potentially becoming the “next idol” of Napoli, comparing him to legendary stars Maradona and Cavani.
It is worth noting that McTominay is not the only new face to join Napoli this summer. Conte also brought in Billy Gilmour, Lukaku, David Neres, and Leonardo Spinazzola, among other capable players. During his time at Manchester United, McTominay made 255 appearances, scoring 29 goals, including 10 last season. His departure brought Manchester United a transfer income of £25 million, which is considered a positive contribution to the club’s financial situation, helping achieve profitability and sustainable development goals.
