After posting a photo of a McTominay number eight Napoli shirt in an Instagram story, the attacking midfielder wrote: "[McTominay] the name that conquered the heart of Napoli," followed by a kiss emoji.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
McTominay made the switch because he was on the fringes at Old Trafford but now he is playing regularly at Napoli. Fernandes, on the other hand, is yet to score for United this season and his side sit 14th in the Premier League table. Despite that, it is clear McTominay and the Portugal star are still good friends after playing alongside one another for several years.
