Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Chelsea pursue Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott

Real Madrid is reportedly considering a bid for Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, joining Liverpool and Chelsea in the pursuit. Scott, 23, recently earned his first England cap during a 7-0 win over Croatia, which heightened interest in his talents. Madrid has been tracking Scott closely, observing him multiple times, including during Bournemouth’s Europa League match against Real Sociedad. As Bournemouth seeks to secure Scott with a new contract, his pricing is expected to remain high, with reports indicating it could exceed £75 million. The presence of Real Madrid adds significant competition to Liverpool and Chelsea's efforts to sign the player.
