Sept 8 : Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay has had a successful procedure to correct a heart arrhythmia and is expected to return to training in about two weeks, the Italian club said on Tuesday.
The 29-year-old Scotland international underwent a planned ablation procedure at Spire Manchester Hospital following a diagnosis of a mild, benign arrhythmia last week.
“As was planned, Scott McTominay had an ablation procedure carried out at the Spire Manchester Hospital during the morning,” Napoli said in a statement. “The surgery was perfectly successful.”
“McTominay will observe a rest period of around two weeks before resuming training.”
