Celtic star refuses to sign a new deal and is determined to leave the club.
Of course, he is following in the footsteps of some fellow Scotland players. Lewis Ferguson has excelled at Bologna, where Aaron Hickey also plied his trade. Josh Doig is with Sassuolo. And since going to Turin, Adams has been joined in Italian football by Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour following their big-money deadline-day transfers to Napoli.Here’s how we rated the Scotland players out of 10 in the Nations League draw against Portugal at Hampden Park.
A spirited Scotland performance at Hampden Park saw Steve Clarke’s side pick up their first Nations League point of the campaign as they held Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal to a 0-0 draw at Hampden Park.I think it’s a huge bonus to the nation. What I’ve learned from moving abroad is it just makes you grow as a person as well, in terms of off the pitch, taking that challenge and being uncomfortable. I think that will only help you in life and in football.”
Adams has netted four times for Torino, who currently sit seventh in Serie A following a decent start to the season. They normally play a 3-5-2 formation, but the ex-Birmingham City hitman does see similarities between Il Toro and the Scotland national team.All this is viewed through a positive prism by Adams. “I think it just opens up your mind to experiencing different levels and different competitions,” the striker said. “I think that can help the nation because we’ve got a few boys now that are playing abroad. We’re coming together now and bringing different ideas and different styles of play. Things like that.I think they like to play the ball forwards quickly,” Adams said of Torino’s approach. “That obviously gives the strikers and the forward players enough chances to create and score goals. I think between Scotland and Torino where I’m at, it’s just the mentality in terms of not giving up anything easy and being hard to play against.
