British media Team Talk reported on the 11th (Korean time) 'The competition between Manchester United and Tottenham is on fire to recruit a 22-year-old player who appeared like a storm in the EPL. The young star player that Manchester United and Tottenham are paying attention to at the same time is Alex Scott of Bournemouth. Scott was recently named to England's national team by Thomas Tuchel. This means that it has excellent growth potential and star quality.

Scott made his professional debut in the 2021-2022 season with Bristol in the Championship (Second Division) after playing Guernsey FC Youth in the eighth division. After receiving attention from several teams in the summer 2023 transfer market, he moved to Bournemouth and entered the EPL. One of the teams that entered Scott's recruitment competition at the time was Tottenham.

Of course, Manchester United were also closely monitoring Scott, who stood out in Bristol early on.

British media outlet TBR's senior reporter Graham Bailey told United in Focus that the Manchester United scouts were impressed by Scott's performance this season, adding him to the recruitment list"Manchester United want to sign a midfielder in January next year, and Scott is the latest star that Manchester United is keeping an eye on."

Coach Huvang Amorim was also impressed by Scott's performance and agreed to the decision to recruit him. Reporter Bailey "Manchester United has already observed Scott several times since Bristol days. Scott was recently selected for England's senior squad for the first time, and he sees it as a starting midfielder in the future," he added.

In the end, Manchester United and Tottenham are expected to compete for Scott's recruitment in the transfer market in January next year. Scott has scored one goal in all 11 league games played by Bournemouth this season. He is said to be reminiscent of Jack Grealish in his heyday because of his outstanding ball possession, transportability, and excellent vision. Attention is focusing on who will laugh in the pride match between Manchester United and Tottenham, which will be held over Scott's recruitment.
