    Scott McTominay Nominated for the award

    The first Scottish player in the mix since Denis Law

    McTominay must be in with a good shout of that reading through the names?

    If it’s not him and it’s someone who is playing for a more ‘prestigious’ club it’ll be down to snobbery.

    He'll, rightly, be nowhere near it.

    Should be between Ousmane Dembele, Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Vitinha and Salah.

    The list itself you have to take with a pinch of salt.

    Donnarumma an outside shout.

    Just watched some highlights and goals of McTominay's season. Looked fantastic and is rightly being considered. Actually makes me proud even though i'm not Scottish tbh

    Would be great if he decided to play for us at some point. Pure drive and makes things happen. Anyone know if he's a diehard Celt or not?

    Fun fact

    Napoli fans call Scott McTominay "McFratm", which is a combination of his surname and the Neapolitan slang word "fratm," meaning "brother". He's also known as "McTerminator" and "Apribottiglie" (the bottle opener).

    Man United fan as far as I’m aware. Think his mums the Scot so he’s adopted us as his nation haha! I’d imagine he’ll be way above us til he retires now too.
