Liverpool eye £100m move for Bournemouth's Alex Scott in January transfer window

Liverpool appears to have a strong opportunity to sign Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott when the transfer window opens in January. Bournemouth is reportedly open to selling Scott for £100m, despite having previously stated he was not for sale. The close relationship between Liverpool's head coach Andoni Iraola and Bournemouth may facilitate the transfer, as Scott's desire to leave the Cherries has been made clear. The 23-year-old has rejected multiple contract offers and has impressed with his performance, particularly noted in a past match against Arsenal. With the January window approaching, Liverpool is poised to act on this opportunity.
