The Scotland international was introduced in the second half and contributed to the Partenopei’s equaliser with a through ball in the build-up to Alisson Santos’ first goal for the defending Serie A champions.
“First steps in 2026,” Gilmour wrote on Instagram.
“No feeling like being on the pitch & none bigger or better than doing it in front of your support. 10 long weeks, now back doing what I love with this team. Forza Napoli Sempre.”
Gilmour spent over 2 months on the sidelines
Gilmour underwent surgery in November 2025 due to a groin injury and had missed the previous 23 matches with the Partenopei.
