Scott McTominay has returned to Scotland's squad for the November international period, according to Bongda24h. The Napoli midfielder missed the September-October window while undergoing heart surgery; his new selection does not itself confirm an appearance.
Napoli performances provide the background
The report credits McTominay with four goals in nine Napoli appearances this season under Max Allegri. It describes him as continuing to hold an important role at the Italian club.
He joined Napoli in the summer of 2024. Bongda24h recalled involvement in 17 goals in his first season, followed by 13 goals and four assists in the next as the team finished in the top four and qualified for the Champions League.
Those separate seasons provide the background to his contribution at Napoli before the recall. His recall is coach Sebastien Pocognoli's selection decision for this camp.
Two international fixtures ahead
Pocognoli also selected familiar players including Andy Robertson and John McGinn. Scotland host North Macedonia on November 13 before travelling to Switzerland, according to the schedule in the account.
At its reporting point, Scotland were third in Group B1 with four points from four matches, three behind Slovenia and eight behind Switzerland.
The article also recalled McTominay's opening goal in the 4-2 World Cup play-off win over Denmark as background to his international contribution. The next step is the camp and the coaches' decision on his role. Selection does not guarantee a start, a full match or any particular medical recovery outcome.
