Alex Scott has two years left on his current contract with Bournemouth.

Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has rejected a new contract with growing Premier League interest in the England Under-21 international. The Cherries have made it a summer priority to tie Scott down to fresh terms but as things stand there is no agreement.

The development comes amid interest from Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenham, Manchester City and Chelsea. BBC Sport reported in June that Arsenal saw an approach for Scott turned down by Bournemouth.

The 22-year-old, who joined Bournemouth from Bristol City in 2023 for £25m, has two years left on his current deal with the Premier League side. Scott was selected in his first England squad last November and was then called up into Thomas Tuchel's extended pre-World Cup training camp in Florida but is yet make an appearance at senior international level.

In a busy Premier League midfielder market this summer, Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson and Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers, are set to complete moves to Manchester City and Chelsea for £116m and £117m respectively. Meanwhile, Tottenham have spent £100m on Newcastle's Sandro Tonali and £85m on West Ham's Mateus Fernandes.

Scott joined Bristol City from Guernsey FC in 2020, going on to make 91 appearances for the Championship side in all competitions. Having been named the division's young player of the season in 2022-23, he joined Bournemouth where he has made 89 appearances and scored six goals.

He helped Bournemouth finish sixth in 2025-26 under Andoni Iraola, qualifying for the Europa League for the first time in their history.
