Scotland's Gilmour makes return for Napoli
- Published
Billy Gilmour has given Scotland head coach Steve Clarke a welcome boost for the March friendlies against Japan and Ivory Coast by making his Napoli comeback in Sunday's 2-2 draw with Roma.
The 24-year-old midfielder was missing for three-and-a-half months after surgery on the groin problem that caused him to miss the final round of qualifying games as Scotland clinched a place at this summer's World Cup.
Gilmour came off the bench on 79 minutes at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona, with the hosts trailing 2-1.
He immediately played a key role in the Napoli equaliser with his smart pass starting a move which was finished off by Alisson Santos.
Napoli stay third in Serie A but the reigning champions now trail Inter Milan by 11 points.
