Scott McTominay Thrives Amid Transfer Talk

Scott McTominay has been in stellar form since his £26 million move to Napoli, winning a Serie A title and MVP award.

What's Behind McTominay's Success?

He has blossomed after adding a more attacking element to his game, scoring 27 goals in 80 appearances. Napoli spotted something in McTominay that they thought could benefit them, and have seen that show of faith more than justified.

Living the Dream in Naples

McTominay is settled off the pitch, alongside partner Cam Reading, and has been taken to the hearts of the fan base. He has often been restricted to a holding role in the past, but has found a new sense of freedom at Napoli.

Transfer Talk and Premier League Suitors

Transfer talk has inevitably surfaced, but should McTominay be giving any consideration to a Premier League return? Miller, the former Scotland international, told GOAL that McTominay has acclimatised himself to life in Naples and is clearly loving his football. There'll be a lot to consider for him, but if Scott wanted a change, and if it was the Premier League he wanted to come back to, I'm sure there would be a lot of suitors.

Scotland's World Cup Hopes

McTominay has grown into a leadership role with Scotland, starring at club level and gracing the international stage. Scotland opened their first World Cup campaign since 1998 with a 1-0 win over Haiti, before suffering defeat by the same scoreline against Morocco. McTominay will likely have an important role to play in Scotland's quest to reach the knockout stages. He has learned how to handle responsibility and added pressure, embracing his new role.
