I started Serie A's Scottish revolution by leaving Celtic
Although Henderson didn't score, he picked up an assist in the match, setting up Jacopo Fazzini for the opener on 59 minutes. Read more: The 28-year-old reached a century of Serie A appearances in the clash. He moved to Italy from Celtic in 2018, first joining Bari, before spells at Hellas Verona, Leece and Palermo. The midfielder is now in his second stint at Empoli. Henderson's initial switch was, at the time, billed as rather bold, yet several Scots have followed suit since, including Aaron Hickey, Che Adams, Lewis Ferguson, Scott McTominay, and Billy Gilmour. Indeed, the latter two have realistic hopes of winning the Scudetto this season, especially after Inter Milan slipped up against Bologna last night. The result means McTominay and Gilmour's Napoli side trail Inter on goal difference only, with the sides level at the summit of Italy's top-flight on 71 points. Just six matches remain of the season, with the Scotland duo eager to become league champions in their debut seasons since moving from England last summer. At the foot of the table, Henderson will be hoping to evade relegation with Empoli. One point separates them and a safe spot, with five league fixtures of their own remaining before the campaign is out. They take on Bologna in the second leg of their Coppa Italia semi-final on Thursday evening, although they are 3-0 down on aggregate.
