The news was posted on X by Napoli club president, Aurelio de Laurentiis, and reposted by the club.
De Laurentiis simply posted “Benvenuto Scott” – “Welcome Scott” – with a photo of the Scotsman signing his contract on the pitch at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.
The club itself then added a post saying “Scott is proud to be one of us.”
Scott is proud to be one of us!

The United academy graduate has signed a five year deal at the Italian club.
The transfer fee was €30.4 million (£25.6m). United also negotiated a 10% sell-on clause in the deal.
McTominay could make his debut for gli Azzurri tomorrow at 7.45pm UK time, when they take on Parma.
The 27 year old will be reunited with former teammate Romelu Lukaku, who has also completed a switch to the Naples side from Chelsea.
Napoli are also in a race against time to sign McTominay’s international teammate, Billy Gilmour, from Brighton before the window closes tonight at 11pm.
