Yesterday, news came out via multiple media outlets in the UK suggesting that Bournemouth are now open to selling Chelsea target Alex Scott in the January transfer window.
Now, as we reported yesterday, this is actually nothing new in terms of them being open to selling. We have maintained on this site across many reports now over the last couple of months that a January move for Scott was not impossible. It would just need a club to drop a fee of PLUS £100m. And now, the multiple reports that came out last night, are backing this asking price up that we reported.
I believe the reports that came out yesterday to be a briefing pushed out by Bournemouth to encourage a bidding war for the England international.
But has anything actually changed, and what is the situation now around Scott to Chelsea? Is it now more possible for the winter? I explain all below…
