McTominay turns focus to Napoli and Serie A after Scotland Nations League relegation | OneFootball

Scotland star Scott McTominay scored a goal during the international break, but it was not enough to avoid Nations League relegation, so his focus will quickly switch to Napoli and the Serie A title race.

Scottish midfielder McTominay is expected to start his 26th consecutive Serie A game on Sunday when his Napoli side host Milan at the Stadio Maradona in a key game for the title race.

The Partenopei have only won one of the last seven league matches, but remain three points below table leaders Inter.

McTominay has been a key player for Antonio Conte this season, contributing to ten goals (six goals and four assists) in 26 league appearances.

McTominay has returned to Napoli training this week after Scotland were relegated to League B of the Nations League.

McTominay had scored the winner from the spot in an away 1-0 victory over Greece last week, but Scotland suffered a 3-0 home loss in the return leg on Sunday and were relegated to the second division.

His Napoli teammate Billy Gilmour started in both matches against Greece, but was subbed off in the second half, and the same is true of Torino’s Che Adams.

McTominay played the full 90 minutes in both Scotland matches and has already accumulated 2241 minutes on the pitch for Napoli this season.
