    Napoli have signed Billy Gilmour from Brighton.

    Keeping it brief for now, the Italian club say: "SSC Napoli announces that it has permanently acquired the sporting services of Billy Gilmour from Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club."

    That's two Scotland international midfielders moving to Naples in the space of two hours.

    The Scottish interest in Serie A ramps up another notch. Tremendous stuff.

  5. Ben Doak joins Middlesborough on loanpublished at 22:03 British Summer Time 30 August

    Scotland forward Ben Doak has joined Championship side Middlesborough on loan for the season.

    With game time at Liverpool looking unlikely due to the attacking squad depth in Arne Slot's squad, and the summer signing of Italian forward Federico Chiesa, Doak will be playing his football elsewhere this season.

    Doak was ruled out of most of last season through injury, and despite being initially named in Steve Clarke's provisional squad for Euro 2024 he was once again injured before the final squad was announced.

    He was named in Clarke's squad earlier this week.

    His parent club said: "Doak will now seek to gain further senior experience under Boro head coach Michael Carrick."

  9. Ryan Fraser returns to Southamptonpublished at 21:56 British Summer Time 30 August

    Ryan Fraser has completed a permanent move to Southampton on a two-year deal.

    The Scotland international played a part in the Saints' promotion from the Championship last season and agreed to terminate his Newcastle contract to secure the move back to former Scotland team-mate Russell Martin's side.

    He featured 44 times during the 2023/24 season, including the play-off final victory against Leeds United, scoring eight goals for the club throughout the campaign.

    "I'm probably the happiest man in Southampton at the minute," he told club media,

    "It's been a long summer from the play-off final to now, but my number one goal was to get back here and now that it's happened, it's one of my proudest moments to be honest.

    "Probably second after winning the play-offs. So yeah, it's really nice to be here.

    "I think the journey that the players and the fans went through last season, we came together and it's amazing to be back."

    So, there's just over an hour to go and there are still plenty of questions out there for Scottish Premiership clubs to answer in terms of ins and outs. Who will be the busiest between now and when the window closes?

    Will Luke McCowan remain in Dundee or be heading to either Edinburgh or Glasgow?

    Could another Scottish midfielder be heading north to join Celtic?

    Will Rangers add to their squad following Todd Cantwell's exit?

    Hibs head coach David Gray is "delighted" to welcome 'Nectar' back and says he's in as a midfielder.

    "I’m delighted to bring Nectar back to the Club," Gray said.

    "He’s someone I really enjoyed working with last season and he’s another great character to add to the dressing room.

    "Nectar is someone I see as a defensive midfielder who has also played a lot at centre-back, which naturally gives him a strong defensive mindset and discipline to dominate the middle of the pitch.

    "I look forward to working with him once again."
