The reasons for Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United to pursue his signing
The interest of the three clubs corresponds to direct strategic needs in their midfields. For Chelsea, the sporting management is seeking the 23-year-old midfielder to fill Enzo Fernández's position after the Argentine's sale to Manchester City. At Arsenal, Mikel Arteta demands added quality in midfield with the potential departure of Martin Zubimendi at the end of the season.
Regarding Manchester United, Michael Carrick has requested a rotational midfielder to share minutes with Kobbie Mainoo and Youri Tielemans. The 23-year-old player joined Bournemouth in the summer of 2023 from Bristol City, amassing 93 official matches, 7 goals, and 6 assists with the Cherries.
Alex Scott's performance and financial demands
The English midfielder recorded an 84% passing accuracy during the 2025-2026 season, establishing himself as one of the most consistent players in the British league. With a contract with Bournemouth until June 2028, Vitality Stadium's management does not face urgency in negotiating his transfer during the winter market.
However, British press forecasts suggest his valuation will continue to rise in the 2026-2027 season. If he does not renew his commitment, the board will consider offers starting from the next summer transfer window.
Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United's analysis departments will provide regular reports during the October and November 2026 matches. The three suitors plan to initiate discussions with Alex Scott's representatives in May 2027 to try to reach a formal agreement before the start of preseason.
