McTominay is Napoli's second major signing from the Premier League this week, with striker Romelu Lukaku joining from Chelsea on Thursday.
McTominay made his final appearance for United when he came on as a late substitute during Saturday's 2-1 loss at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Scotland international Billy Gilmour also completed a permanent move to the Serie A side for undisclosed terms from Brighton & Hove Albion.
The 23-year-old midfielder spent five years at Chelsea until 2022 when he signed for Brighton, where he made 60 appearances in all competitions.
Napoli, who got their first league win under manager Antonio Conte when they beat Bologna 3-0 last weekend, host Parma on Saturday.
