The midfielder has eclipsed Denis Law as the most prolific Scottish player in a single season in Italy’s top league.

He wasn't the only Scottish international goal-getter on the field on Sunday. His international teammate Che Adams has scored nine times in Serie A since switching to Torino last year, but McTominay passed another Torino player to become his country's top Serie A scorer.

ROME (AP) — Scott McTominay’s new preferred nickname is a mix of his Scottish surname and some Neapolitan dialect. The attacking midfielder who has been the driving force behind Napoli’s surge into the Serie A lead revealed his choice after scoring a brace in a 2-0 win over Torino that raised his total to five goals in three games.
