Bournemouth are reportedly prepared to part ways with Alex Scott this summer, but only if Manchester United meet their firm £80 million valuation. The Cherries are understood to value the England youth international as one of their most prized assets and have no intention of negotiating below their asking price.
Club officials have already begun planning for life after Scott, identifying a highly rated Spanish midfielder currently starring in La Liga as their preferred replacement. Sources suggest the player has already given the green light to a Premier League move, with personal terms unlikely to be an obstacle should Bournemouth receive the fee they are demanding from Manchester United.
The proposed deal could become one of the biggest transfers of the window, allowing Bournemouth to reinvest heavily while maintaining the quality of Andoni Iraola’s squad. Now, all eyes are on whether Manchester United will match the £80 million valuation and trigger a domino effect in the transfer market.
