McTominay missed the latest Coppa Italia match against Como on Tuesday due to a minor muscle problem, and according to Gazzetta, he’s pushing to return to action tomorrow.

Napoli doctors and the coach, Antonio Conte, will assess him today, but McT will do anything he can to be part of the Partenopei’s XI at the Stadio Maradona in 24 hours.

McTominay has played 2846 minutes across 34 appearances this season, scoring ten goals and providing four assists.

His compatriot Gilmour is also expected to return to action shortly, as, according to Gazzetta, he’ll be eligible against Roma or in the following match against Atalanta.

Gilmour underwent surgery due to a groin injury at the end of November. He made his last appearance for Napoli on November 1, missing 23 matches with the Partenopei.
