Tottenham Intensify Monitoring of Bournemouth’s Alex Scott as Long-Term Midfield Target

Scouts at Tottenham view the 22-year-old as a future-fit midfielder rather than a January target.

Overview

  • TEAMtalk journalist Dean Jones says Spurs’ recruitment staff remain "very hot" on Scott after following him since his Bristol City rise.
  • Reports describe the interest as long term, with an immediate bid in January viewed as unlikely and a possible move considered for a later window.
  • Coverage links the pursuit to Tottenham’s search for a more mobile No.8/No.10 given concerns about the BentancurPalhinha pairing against quicker midfields.
  • Scott has started most matches under Andoni Iraola this season and earned a senior England call-up on the back of consistent performances.
  • Analysts highlight his standout display in Bournemouth’s 1-0 win over Spurs in August and note strong defensive and passing metrics reported via fbref.
