  WHAT HAPPENED?

  McTominay has proven to be a smash hit at the Serie A side after moving to the club in the summer transfer window from Manchester United. The Scot has already been handed a new McFratm (McBro) nickname and a shrine has now been spotted in the historic heart of the city, dedicated to the Scotland international.

  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  McTominay has bagged 11 goals in Serie A this season and helped fire Napoli to the top of the table. Antonio Conte's side have a three-point lead with just three games left to play and will be hoping to win the Scudetto in McTominay's first season at the club. The Scot's performances have ensured he's also become something of a cult hero already at the club, with one fan having shown off a new tattoo in honour of the midfielder. Meanwhile, the new artwork evokes memories of the late great Diego Maradona who features in murals across the city.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  McTominay's shrine can be found in the narrow Vico San Nicola a Nilo street in Naples. The artwork contains the words 'McFratm' and the initials 'N4' and also features rosaries, flowers and candles.
