Alex Scott has been linked with a move to Arsenal after playing an important role for Bournemouth during the 2025/2026 season, helping the club secure qualification for the Europa League. His contributions throughout the campaign ensured that he remained a key figure within the squad as the Cherries enjoyed a memorable season.
The midfielder has established himself as one of the most exciting young players in the Premier League and continues to produce impressive performances whenever he takes to the pitch. His displays have earned him recognition from Thomas Tuchel, further highlighting the progress he has made over the course of the season. Scott is undoubtedly a player to watch, and it would come as little surprise if some of England’s biggest clubs became increasingly serious about adding him to their squads during this transfer window.
Arsenal Monitoring Scott’s Situation
Several clubs observed Scott’s performances for Bournemouth last season and now regard him as one of the standout talents in the league. There is a growing belief that he possesses the ability to elevate his game even further should he make the move to a larger club with greater expectations and opportunities.
Bournemouth have shown a willingness to sell players if their valuation is met, and they are expected to listen to offers for Scott’s signature in the coming weeks. As a result, speculation surrounding his future is likely to intensify as interested clubs assess their options ahead of the new campaign.
Competition for His Signature
Several clubs have Scott on their shopping lists and, according to journalist Alex Goldberg, Arsenal are among the teams interested in securing his services. The report suggests that the Gunners view him as a player capable of strengthening their midfield options as they continue to plan for the future.
Arsenal are expected to face competition from Manchester United and Liverpool in the race for the midfielder’s signature. With multiple clubs monitoring his situation, any negotiations could develop quickly as the transfer window progresses.
Scott could complete a move before the beginning of pre-season, with interested clubs keen to finalise their business ahead of preparations for the new season. His next decision may prove to be a significant moment in what already appears to be a highly promising career.

ADMIN COMMENT
So here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….
You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.
CALLING ALL ARSENAL FANS! Anyone who would like to contribute an Article or Video opinion piece on JustArsenal, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us through this link…
A player worthy of Arsenal.
Scott or Tonali would be great recruits for Arsenal.They both possess excellent technical skills and would bring pace and energy to our midfield which is essential in the modern game.In the case of Scott, not only is he adept in a dual pivot role which he usually carries out for Bournemouth, but he has the legs to cover the ground as a box to box operator, and ,as he did for Bristol City he can be a very accomplished number 10, which would put real pressure on the likes of Odegaard and Eze..In essence he is a very talented and versatile young player who is going places for sure and i would love to see him in an Arsenal shirt.
Agreed on Scoot, he has an unexpected pass in him too, which could be great for us.
Apparently he was one of Iraola’s favourite players at Bournemouth though and Liverpool are looking for midfield reinforcements. They’re also after him, so we’ll have to see how that plays out.
Scott is a great player but are we really looking at him? So much chatter about Tonali, Rogers, M Fernandez and now Scott.
For me this scatter gun approach by the media outlets regarding what players Arsenal are supposed to be interested in is there attempt at covering all bases.
With the amount of connections to players that Arsenal get, the media are likely to get the odd one right here and there.
It seems if it has a pulse, Arsenal are connected with it. 🤷♂️
Here we go again!!
Another transfer window that sees our club, supposedly, chasing every player for every position, with bloated prices that bear no correspondence to the individuals ability.
The same goes for players leaving the club – Califiori, Norgaard, Nwaneri, Martinelli, Trossard, Odegaard, Eze, Havertz, Merino and Skelly have allowed been mentioned and shows just how ridiculous the media / pundits / fans (me included) become during any window.
