Napoli confirmed that Scotland midfielder Scott McTominay’s recent heart surgery was a complete success, citing the club’s medical team’s assessment that the operation went “as planned” and produced the desired outcome. The club’s official statement, released on Monday, noted that McTominay will be able to return to training later this month, pending final medical clearance.
