Just hours after Scott McTominay’s spectacular volley secured Napoli’s Serie A title, a devoted fan had the iconic moment permanently inked on his skin.
With the score still 0-0 against Cagliari at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, Napoli had slipped to second place behind Inter, who were leading their match in Como. Then McTominay, the Scotland international midfielder, brilliantly held off a shirt tug and acrobatically volleyed the opening goal, sparking wild Scudetto celebrations.
Inspired by that unforgettable leap, a Napoli supporter chose to capture the image in a detailed tattoo — a tribute to the player who has become the face of Napoli’s championship triumph.
McTominay’s impact is so profound that many expect a new generation of Neapolitan children might be named Scott, much like how countless boys were named Diego in the late 1980s and early 1990s after Diego Maradona.
Affectionately nicknamed “McFratm,” blending a Scottish twist with the Neapolitan word for “brother,” McTominay is clearly embraced by the city and is enjoying his life in Naples both on and off the pitch.
