He is so smooth on the ball, his decision making is at the highest level. He is so active, so confident.

He is just the complete package. He gave us a lot of mobility and a lot of variety and work rate in the centre of the pitch.” Liverpool have been linked with a move for Scott throughout 2027, and taking to X, Romano has now provided a new update, saying a Bournemouth exit may be on the cards for the £1o0m-rated midfielder: “Alex Scott could leave Bournemouth in January in case of big proposal.

Scott is an excellent young player who appears to be growing all the time, and Andoni Iraola knows him extremely well, lauding him when they worked together at Bournemouth: “He has played for us as a number 10, a number eight; today as a number six and he has added a lot of defensive work and a lot of duel-winning to the ability he has on the ball. I’m very happy because he is becoming a very, very complete player.” Whether Scott is exactly what Liverpool need in the middle of the park is debatable, though, with the Reds desperate for more of a No.6 who can bring natural defensive cover and legs, acting as a good foil for the likes of Ryan Gravenberch, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai.
