AFC Bournemouth ‘open to offers’ in January for Alex Scott — report

AFC Bournemouth is reportedly willing to entertain offers for midfielder Alex Scott in January, according to a BBC report. The decision to open the door to potential suitors came after discussions with Scott's representatives. However, the Cherries' stance on selling the 23-year-old, who has less than two years left on his contract, has softened since the summer.

While Chelsea and Liverpool are among the potential suitors, Bournemouth are looking for a bidding war among the Premier League's big clubs to secure a deal. The club is reportedly seeking around £100 million for Scott, which may make the move difficult to achieve. With Scott currently sidelined due to injury picked up during international duty, his return may not come in time to salvage Bournemouth's struggling season.
