AFC Bournemouth close the door on Alex Scott's departure in January despite Chelsea interest

Sources within AFC Bournemouth have confirmed that the management does not intend to enter into any negotiations regarding Alex Scott's future at this time, indicating that the club is primarily focused on ensuring the stability of the team and re-establishing itself in the Premier League this season.

According to sources, AFC Bournemouth do not intend to sell Alex Scott during the upcoming winter transfer window, despite ongoing interest from several clubs in the services of the English midfielder, who is considered an important part of the team's lineup.

Chelsea have made at least one offer to sign Alex Scott during the last summer transfer window, while sources outside AFC Bournemouth reported that the London club submitted a total of three offers, amounting to approximately £68 million.

Despite these movements, AFC Bournemouth remains firm on its current position regarding the player, with no intention to open negotiations in January. It seems that Alex Scott's future will remain tied to the club's stance for the current season, awaiting whether interested clubs will return with new offers during next summer.
