Bournemouth Hold Firm On Alex Scott As Premier League Giants Circle

Interest from Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea could force a sale if a very large bid is lodged or if a release clause is added to his proposed new contract.

Overview

  • Bournemouth have told interested clubs that 22-year-old Alex Scott is not for sale and have offered him fresh terms while he remains under contract until 2028.
  • Several top Premier League clubs have made contact or are monitoring Scott, with Arsenal’s sporting director Andrea Berta reported to have been rebuffed when enquiring.
  • Journalists report Bournemouth value Scott at about £80 million, a figure that would shape whether suitors press ahead or withdraw.
  • Sources say Bournemouth are discussing a new deal that could include a release clause, which would give other clubs a clear route to trigger a transfer.
  • The situation is unfolding and is likely to be decided in the coming days, with outcomes set to hinge on formal bids, any contract terms agreed, and Scott’s own choice about playing time and career path.
