Alex Scott Transfer: Bournemouth Eye £100m+ as Liverpool and Chelsea Monitor Midfielder

Bournemouth are reportedly prepared to set a huge asking price for Alex Scott, with Football Insider claiming the 23-year-old could cost more than £100 million.

Liverpool and Chelsea Keep Tabs on England Midfielder

Both Premier League heavyweights are said to be watching Scott’s situation closely. The former Bristol City man has become a key figure at the Vitality Stadium and recently earned his senior England debut under Thomas Tuchel, collecting two caps during the latest international break.

That rise has boosted his profile and, according to the report, strengthened Bournemouth’s belief that they can demand a premium.

Why Bournemouth Are in No Hurry to Sell

The Cherries hold the upper hand, with Scott contracted until 2028. There is no pressure to cash in, and a mid-season approach in January would be unwelcome given his importance to the side.

Interest from several clubs also gives Bournemouth the chance to spark a bidding war should he become available.

Opinion: Summer 2027 Could Be the Real Test

A fee north of £100 million is a daunting ask for any suitor. Liverpool reportedly need a specialist holding midfielder to ease the load on Ryan Gravenberch, while Chelsea already have plenty of midfield options.

Waiting looks the smartest play for Bournemouth. Another strong campaign and more England appearances could lift his value further, while giving them time to negotiate an extension. If a new deal cannot be agreed, next summer may be when Liverpool and Chelsea find out just how firm that valuation really is.
