Bournemouth has indicated a willingness to sell midfielder Alex Scott in the January transfer window, a reversal from their firm stance last summer. This decision comes after the club and Scott's representatives failed to agree on new contract terms, despite an offer that would have made him Bournemouth's highest-paid player, exceeding Antoine Semenyo's £150,000-per-week deal. Chelsea continues to pursue the 23-year-old, having had a £64 million bid rejected previously, as they seek to bolster their midfield following Enzo Fernández's move to Manchester City. Liverpool, managed by Scott's former coach Andoni Iraola, also expressed summer interest but did not submit an official offer, instead monitoring Lamine Camara at Monaco. Bournemouth's high asking price, ranging from £80 million to £100 million, remains the primary obstacle. Despite the transfer speculation, Bournemouth head coach Marco Rose maintains that Scott is fully committed and is recovering faster than expected from a thigh injury. The club, currently 15th in the Premier League, also prioritizes securing its top-flight status before any mid-season departures.
