Bournemouth boss Marco Rose has ruled out an exit for Alex Scott, amid interest from Manchester United. The 22-year-old midfielder has been linked with a move to Old Trafford, but Rose is keen to keep him.
What's behind the interest?
Manchester United have been rebuilding their midfield, with Scott being one of their targets. They have already signed Ederson from Atalanta, but are still looking for more signings.
Why it matters for Bournemouth
Scott is central to Rose's plans, and his exit would be a significant blow to the team. Bournemouth are currently 6th in the Premier League, with 57 points from 38 games. Their recent form has been impressive, with 1 win and 4 draws in their last 5 games.
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
| League standing | 6th |
| Points | 57 |
| Recent form | 1W-4D-0L |
What comes next?
United will have to look elsewhere for midfield reinforcements, with Scott unlikely to leave Bournemouth. Rose's decision to keep Scott is a significant boost to Bournemouth's chances of finishing in the top 6. The team's last result was a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest on May 24, 2026.
Bournemouth's goal difference is +4, with 58 goals scored and 54 conceded. They are 28 points behind leaders Arsenal, but are still in contention for a European spot. With Scott staying, Bournemouth's chances of achieving this goal have increased significantly.
