Romano: Arsenal have contacted Premier League club for ‘one of the most interesting midfielders’ after Guimaraes setback

Stan Collymore tips Alex Scott to excel at top clubs

He said:

“If I was any of the top six or seven teams, I would want him in my team.

“There are few players who can do what he does, especially getting out of tight spaces. There’s no doubt about his ability, and that was shown in his involvement with the England squad during the friendlies.”

While Bournemouth remain determined to keep Scott, Arsenal’s interest shows just how highly the midfielder is regarded, and he could remain a player to watch throughout the remainder of the transfer window.
