Bournemouth Continue Talks Over Alex Scott With Asking Price of 100 Million Pounds
Bournemouth owner Bill Foley said he remains hopeful that Alex Scott will sign a new contract. The club is asking 100 million pounds for the player, who has drawn interest from several clubs, Chelsea included.
Bournemouth owner Bill Foley told supporters that the club has not given up on persuading Alex Scott to sign a new contract. The 23-year-old midfielder is one of the most sought-after players in the Premier League and is on the radar of several wealthy clubs.
Scott's current contract runs until the end of the 2027/28 season. This means Bournemouth must soon decide whether to keep the player and how to secure the best fee if a transfer happens.
Chelsea were reportedly submitted a bid of 64 million pounds last summer. Bournemouth are said to have demanded 100 million pounds and rejected the offer. While Chelsea's interest continues, Liverpool, Manchester City and Real Madrid of La Liga are also reported to be monitoring the player.
Speaking to talkSPORT, Foley restated the club's position. He acknowledged, however, that clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester City could attract players. Foley said the club will keep working on a contract with Scott throughout this season.
