Former Milan and Italy star Demetrio Albertini praises Napoli ace Scott McTominay: ‘He’s certainly among the very best in Europe.’
Scotland international McTominay continues to draw plaudits in Italy, and this time the praise came from one of Italian football‘s greats.
“He surprised me with his extremely high level of quality, with the all-round ability he has managed to impose in a year and a half,” Albertini, a former Milan and Barcelona midfielder, told Gazzetta.
“We’ve seen him do everything: play as a box-to-box midfielder, as a winger, as a forward and then even as a holding midfielder and a playmaker. How many players like him are around? That he has been the strongest midfielder in Italy isn’t just my opinion; his fellow players said it too, when he was voted MVP at the Gran Galà del Calcio. Those votes come from players like him, and they count for more.
“He scored a lot, and his goals are usually decisive. That’s another big difference compared to the norm. I don’t know if he’s also the best in Europem but he’s certainly among the very best and to me that almost feels like a detail. Congratulations to whoever had the idea to bring him to Napoli.”
