McTominay: "I had to undergo heart defibrillation two days before the World Cup"

McTominay reveals he underwent a heart defibrillation two days before the World Cup and has now recovered to rejoin Scotland's squad after missing the previous international break.

Napoli midfielder Scott McTominay has disclosed that he required a defibrillation procedure on his heart just two days before the World Cup. The Scottish midfielder had previously missed an international break due to a mild arrhythmia but has now recovered and returned to the Scotland squad.

McTominay's cardiac issues came to light during the World Cup preparation period, but he was able to participate in the tournament. He has since made a full recovery and is available for selection in Scotland's upcoming fixtures.
