Story updated
The story in brief
28-second readMassimiliano Allegri says Scott McTominay could start Napoli’s Champions League clash with Villarreal, though he has yet to settle on his line-up. With quotes via Tuttomercatoweb , the Napoli coach spoke at his press conference on the eve of the second match of the league phase.
“We have to try to pick up points, because it’s the second Champions League game.
Against Villarreal it won’t be easy, because they’re an awkward side and they’re coming off a good game against Real.” McTominay last started on August 30 against Como, before undergoing an ablation procedure to correct a mild heart arrhythmia on 8 September.
