Bournemouth's position on Alex Scott appears to be shifting as the England midfielder continues to reject contract renewal offers. Despite the club's initial stance against selling him, they may reconsider if a significant bid arrives in January.

• Chelsea and Liverpool are keeping a close eye on the 23-year-old, with Manchester City, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Tottenham previously expressing interest before opting for other midfield options.

Scott's current contract runs for just over 18 months, and Bournemouth recognizes that his market value will decline as time passes. While the club has not yet secured a Premier League victory this season, following a 5-1 defeat to Chelsea, they might entertain offers exceeding £80 million with add-ons if they feel secure from relegation by January.

Unfortunately, Scott is sidelined with a thigh tendon injury sustained during his full senior debut with England, prolonging his recovery.

Bournemouth head coach Marco Rose has emphasized Scott's commitment to the club amid mounting speculation about a potential exit. In a recent press conference, he stated, "We just closed the other transfer window and we're now talking about the next one," reinforcing the focus on the upcoming matches rather than transfer rumors.

Rose expressed confidence in Scott's dedication, saying, "He's a player of our club and now he's injured, we are looking forward to having him back in a couple of days and weeks." With the transfer window chatter intensifying, the future of Alex Scott remains a pivotal topic for Bournemouth.
