Scott McTominay is already Serie A’s highest-scoring Scotsman

With 19 goals to his name in Serie A, McTominay also holds the record as the highest scoring Scotsman to ever play in the division.

United legend and fellow Scot Denis Law spent a season in Serie A playing for Torino in 1961/62 where he scored 10 goals in 27 matches for the Italian outfit.

But it is McTominay who has the throne with his 19 goals for Napoli – and counting.
