Man Utd want Alex Scott

Manchester United believe they can prise Alex Scott away from Bournemouth for £60 million during the summer transfer window, according to The Athletic.

The Red Devils have already secured an agreement for Atalanta’s Ederson, but they are planning to make more midfield additions this summer.S

Scott is one of the top names on their radar after a promising campaign for the Cherries, where he was brilliant from the heart of their midfield.

Bournemouth are currently reluctant to part ways with the Englishman and remain optimistic of negotiating a new deal with a £75m release clause.

However, United are not giving up on the player just yet and feel they can snatch his services for £60m during the busy end of the transfer window.

Chelsea have also been linked with the talented ace, but they are unlikely to make a huge outlay unless Enzo Fernandez makes a surprise move.

Fernandez has been linked with Manchester City and Real Madrid.
