Gilabola.com – Scott McTominay suddenly entered Newcastle United’s radar. It’s not just an ordinary rumor, the Scottish midfielder is even said to be able to change the face of the Magpies’ game next season.
McTominay’s performance in Italy has increased drastically since leaving Manchester United in 2024. With Napoli, he has emerged as one of the most influential players in Serie A.
Under the hands of Antonio Conte, McTominay’s game changed completely. He’s not just a hard-working midfielder anymore.
Goal after goal started coming.
He has scored a total of 22 goals in the last two seasons. McTominay also helped Napoli win the Scudetto, won the Serie A MVP title, and was nominated for the Ballon d’Or.
His name became even bigger after appearing impressively with the Scottish national team. One of the most memorable moments came when he scored an overhead goal against Denmark in a World Cup qualifying match.
Newcastle are starting to be linked with him amid plans to reshuffle their squad this summer. The futures of Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali are not completely safe, especially Tonali who continues to be linked with returning to Italy.
If that happens, Newcastle’s midfield will lose a lot of energy.
Newcastle asked to seriously pursue McTominay
Head of Sun Sport, Shaun Curtis, believes that Newcastle must bring in elite quality players if they want to move up the level next season.
According to him, McTominay is the ideal figure.
Curtis even feels that the Napoli midfielder can have an instant impact on Eddie Howe’s squad.
He said Newcastle might have to prepare around 65 million pounds sterling or around Rp. 1.4 trillion to bring McTominay from Napoli.
Very expensive price. But Curtis felt it was worth it.
“I really feel he can help turn Newcastle around,” Curtis said on Inside the Toon.
Apart from McTominay, Curtis also mentioned several other names such as Jean-Philippe Mateta, Omar Marmoush, and Goncalo Ramos as options to strengthen the front line.
However, the focus of the conversation remained back on McTominay.

| Competition | Main | Goal | Help |
|---|---|---|---|
| Series A 2025/2026 | 34 | 14 | 6 |
| League Champion | 10 | 4 | 2 |
| Italian Cup | 4 | 1 | 1 |

Napoli Prepares New Contract
Napoli itself seems aware of the threat of interest from other clubs starting to come. They have opened talks about a new contract for McTominay.
The new contract is said to last him until 2030 with an option to extend for another year. His salary will also be increased as a reward for his performance.
McTominay previously admitted that he was very comfortable in Naples.
He emphasized that his agent was not talking to other clubs and he was only focused on Napoli.
“I’m very happy here. I’m a Napoli player and that’s all I think about,” said McTominay.
Newcastle Don’t Waste Any More Time
Football commentator and content creator Adam Clery also supports Newcastle in pursuing McTominay.
Even so, he gave a strong warning to club management.
Clery doesn’t want Newcastle to spend the summer chasing players who were eventually snapped up by big European clubs.
He touched on Newcastle’s failure last season when they were linked with Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Bryan Mbeumo, and even Benjamin Sesko.
According to him, Newcastle must move quickly and be realistic before a bidding war breaks out.
Clery also mentioned Morgan Gibbs-White as a suitable player profile for the Newcastle project. But he is aware that clubs with bigger finances could come in at any time and change the situation.

Scott McTominay found the best version of himself after leaving Manchester United. His role at Napoli was much freer and that made his contribution explode. If Newcastle is really serious about competing at the top of the Premier League, McTominay feels like the right fit.
PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
