ROME — 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.

McTominay mania is at its peak in Italy’s Serie A after the Scotland international steered Napoli on course for the title—the winners and losers are clear.
