Alex Scott - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Ruled out for two more weeks Scott (thigh) has resumed individual training on the grass but remains unavailable for at least another two weeks as he gradually increases his workload, according to coach Marco R...

Impact Scott has taken another step in his recovery from a thigh injury after returning to outdoor training, although he has yet to rejoin full team sessions. The midfielder initially experienced some discomfort following his first training session on the grass, but his response improved over the following days, allowing Bournemouth to gradually increase his workload. Despite this progress, he has been ruled out for at least another two weeks, meaning he will miss Thursday's Europa League clash against AC Milan and Sunday's Premier League encounter against Manchester United. His return will depend on how his thigh responds to increased training intensity before he can resume full participation with the squad.

Impact Scott is making good progress from the thigh injury that forced him out of the England squad, and a positive MRI has opened the door for him to start working on the grass as soon as next week. That would mark an important step for a player who has been central to Bournemouth's midfield this season. His body's reaction to those first sessions will decide the next stage, and he could be back in contention for selection a few weeks after that if all goes well.

Impact Scott was given a four-to-five-week timeline in early October, but this update suggests he could have a chance to return before that period. He remains out for the time being though, having already missed two matches across EPL and UEL competitions. Prior to the issue, he served as a regular starter in the holding midfield line while also racking up shots and a few set pieces per contest. Until Scott is ready to return, all of Tyler Adams, Lewis Cook and Ryan Christie will see increased minutes on the pitch.

Set to miss four-to-five weeks Scott (quadriceps) is expected to be sidelined for four to five weeks and will undergo further scans to assess the injury sustained during international duty with England, accordin...

Impact Scott is set for a significant spell on the sidelines after picking up a quadriceps injury during his first senior international appearances with England. The four-to-five-week recovery estimate is more encouraging than initial reports suggesting a possible two-month absence, though further scans are still needed to confirm the extent of the injury. The midfielder has been a key contributor for Bournemouth this season, recording one goal, 11 chances created, nine tackles and eight interceptions across five Premier League appearances. Lewis Cook could take on a larger role in midfield during Scott's absence.

Impact Scott made his senior England debut with a 20-minute cameo against Czechia before logging 70 minutes against Croatia, with no obvious sign of an injury during either appearance. The midfielder has been one of Bournemouth's standout performers early in the Premier League campaign, producing one goal, 11 chances created, nine tackles and eight interceptions across five appearances. A potential two-month absence would leave a sizable hole in the Cherries' midfield, though the timeline remains, with Lewis Cook likely to step into a larger role if Scott is forced into an extended spell on the sidelines.

Withdraws from England squad Scott (undisclosed) is pulling out of the England squad with an injury picked up before Saturday's 7-0 win in Croatia and will return to Bournemouth to be assessed, as he could pot...

Impact Scott made his senior debut off the bench for 20 minutes in the 2-0 win over Czechia, then played through the pain for 70 minutes against Croatia in a decent performance. He has had a strong start to the Premier League season, recording one goal, 11 chances created, nine tackles and eight interceptions across five appearances, so a lengthy absence would be a significant blow for Bournemouth's midfield. If he had to miss some time on the sidelines, Lewis Cook will be in line to start in the midfield for the Cherries until Scott returns to full speed.

OCTOBER 5 • ROTOWIRE

Makes England debut Scott made his senior England debut in Tuesday's 2-0 Nations League win over Czechia, coming off the bench for the final 20 minutes.

Impact Scott earned his first senior cap after replacing Elliot Anderson in midfield, marking another step forward after previously being involved in England camps without making an appearance. The Bournemouth midfielder has earned the opportunity following a strong start to the Premier League season, recording one goal and 11 chances created across five appearances. He has also contributed nine tackles and eight interceptions, highlighting his two-way impact in midfield, and could receive further international minutes against Croatia on Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Busy Sunday Scott had two shots (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Liverpool.

Impact Scott was excellent in the center of the park alongside Tyler Adams during Sunday's loss. Adams was the destroyer winning the ball back, and Scott was the creator, causing issues for Liverpool's defense. In the end it wasn't enough to get on the scoresheet, but Scott was still excellent, showing his talent and ability to play box-to-box.

SEPTEMBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Makes three interceptions Scott had two shots (zero on goal) and one corner in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Newcastle United.

Impact Scott was Bournemouth's best defensive midfielder in Saturday's 2-2 draw at Newcastle, registering three interceptions and two shots without troubling the goalkeeper across 89 minutes before being replaced by Ryan Christie in the closing stages as Bournemouth looked to hold their lead. He delivered one corner throughout the match and was consistently involved in breaking up Newcastle's possession attempts in midfield as the Magpies looked to build from the back. Scott has now made five interceptions and seven tackles across Bournemouth's opening three Premier League matches.

SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Scores vs. Everton Scott scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), six crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Everton. In addition, he was given a yellow card...

Impact Scott took advantage of a clever pass from Evanilson to beat Jordan Pickford with a shot from the edge of the box. The talented playmaker figures to play a big role for Bournemouth this season, and even though he's not likely to score many goals on a steady basis, he should have a high floor in most formats due to his involvement in other areas.

AUGUST 29 • ROTOWIRE

Records two crosses Scott had two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-1 loss versus Manchester City.

Impact Scott was handed a major role in the Cherries side Sunday as he was tasked with leading the midfield, recording a full 90 minutes in a pivot role. This would lead him to 37 completed passes and two crosses, getting some decent help in that department from his role on corners. He would have to have a bit more of a defensive match against a very attacking City, notching one interception and four tackles.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

With pre-tournament team Scott (undisclosed) was unused off the bench in England's pre-World Cup warm-up matches.

Impact Scott was a late scratch from the final match of the season for Bournemouth due to a slight knock, but it was nothing to worry about heading into the summer, as he would get a call-up to the pre-World Cup camp with England. That said, the midfielder is fit heading into the 2026/27 season, where he is met with numerous transfer offers from top clubs as a possible move away from the Cherries looms. At his young age, the midfielder has built himself a solid career thus far in the Premier League, recording three goals and one assist to go along with 60 tackles, 81 clearances and 88 crosses in 37 appearances (34 starts) last campaign.

JULY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Late scratch Scott is a late scratch from Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest due to an injury.

Impact Scott is not going to play the season finale Sunday, as the midfielder instead suffered an injury in warm-ups that will keep him out. This forces Alex Toth into the starting XI for the final match of the campaign. Scott finishes the season as a major part of the midfield, recording three goals and one assist in 37 appearances (34 starts) this season.

MAY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies winning goal Scott scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Arsenal.

Impact Scott gave Bournemouth three points with his goal and more importantly, put a major dent in Arsenal's title chances. The midfielder should continue having a solid role against Newcastle, a mid-table team which has been poor in defense. They've allowed 45 goals in 31 EPL games.

APRIL 11 • ROTOWIRE

Scores to secure the 2-0 win Scott scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 win over Wolverhampton.

Impact Scott scored his second goal of the season in the Premier League, having also scored a goal in the FA Cup recently. This was the seventh Premier League game this season in which he has attempted two or more shots in a game. In the 15 shots in these games he has only managed two shots on target, one of which was the goal in this game.

FEBRUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Sets up opener Scott assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Liverpool.

Impact Scott brilliantly kept the ball in play and squared it off to Evanilson for the opener in the 26th minute. Scott won four duels and also made two clearances and a tackle. He has now contributed to two goals in the last three games across all competitions.

JANUARY 25 • ROTOWIRE

Starting immediately Scott (head) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Chelsea.

Impact Scott was a late call after some fitness issues due to a knock to the jaw but has come through on the correct side, with the midfielder an option for the starting XI immediately. He has now started in two straight games and should maintain this role, starting in 16 of his 19 appearances this season while recording one goal contribution.

DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Late call for Tuesday Scott (jaw) is a late call for Tuesday's match against Chelsea, according to manager Andoni Iraola, per Alexander Smith of the Bournemouth Echo. "Last season, he broke his jaw in t...

Impact Scott was forced off the field with a knock to the head during the club's last outing and is now battling a late fitness test, with the midfielder worried of a jaw injury. This comes after he suffered a similar injury last season, hoping he isn't affected by anything too serious. He did start in their last match, so this is something to monitor as they take the field, with Ryan Christie and Lewis Cook as possible replacements.

DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Off after knock to head Scott was forced off the field in the 84th minute of Saturday's 4-1 loss to Brentford due to an apparent head injury.

Impact Scott would earn the start for the first time in two games Saturday, but left the field with only a few minutes to go, appearing to fear a concussion after a knock to the head. This will be something to watch heading into the short week, with two games in the next seven days. He is a typical starter in the midfield, so this could be a rough loss, with Ryan Christie or Lewis Cook as replacements.

DECEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Four crosses in draw Scott generated one shot (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Chelsea.

Impact Scott led the Bournemouth attack Saturday in crosses (four attempted, one accurate) and corners (four) as his side played to a 0-0 draw versus visitors Chelsea. Across his last five appearances (five starts), the holding-midfielder has delivered 18 crosses (one accurate) and 13 corners without creating a chance. Scott has three career Premier League goal contributions for Bournemouth across 58 appearances (33 starts) dating back to the 2023/24 campaign.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Goal in strong performance Scott scored one goal to go with one shot (on goal), one cross (not accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Brighton.

Impact Scott scored Bournemouth's opener Saturday in their 2-1 win over Brighton, curling a sublime left-footed strike into the top corner for his first league goal since December 2023. The 22-year-old showed his physicality throughout the match, winning seven of the 11 duels he engaged in, and was subbed after 67 minutes. He has been a regular starter this season and his performance suggests he's regaining the attacking form that made him a key contributor in previous campaigns.

SEPTEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Returns in friendly Scott (knee) played half an hour in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Everton in a pre-season friendly, confirming his return from injury.

Impact Scott has been progressing well in his recovery from a knee injury in recent weeks as he was training with the team. That injury now appears to be behind him since he played half an hour in Saturday's friendly against the Toffees. This is good news for the Cherries as he was a regular starter in the final stretch of last season and will likely play a role again heading into 2025/26.

JULY 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Trains with team Scott (knee) has returned to training ahead of the club's preseason tournament, according to his club.

Impact Scott is recovering from his knee injury quite well at the moment, as the midfielder has now trained with the group in Chicago ahead of their preseason tour. This does leave him a spot to likely feature in one of those friednlies over the next few weeks. That would likely clear him ahead of the season and leave him avialble for matchday one, good news to hear after the injury to Lewis Cook (knee).

JULY 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Suffers knee injury Scott suffered an apparent knee injury in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Germany in the U21 EURO Championship.

Impact Scott couldn't make it to the break in Saturday's final of the U21 EURO Championship after suffering an apparent knee injury, according to reports. This is a big blow for the midfielder since it comes just a few weeks after he suffered a broken jaw and had to wear a mask during the final. Scott will likely be assessed in the coming days to determine the extent of his knee injury and whether he will have to miss some time. He will hope to return fit for pre-season with the Cherries as he looks to boost his minutes next season in midfield, while bringing competition to likely starters such as Lewis Cook and Ryan Christie.

JUNE 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Full go after broken jaw Scott started and went 84 minutes in Thursday's win with the England U21s, his first significant minutes since breaking his jaw last month.

Impact Scott returned rather quickly to the pitch after breaking his jaw and even managed to play off the bench in the season finale with a mask. With another year under his belt, he'll look to boost his minutes in the new campaign, having appeared in 43 league matches the last two seasons but only 19 starts. The question is where he fits with Lewis Cook and Ryan Christie locked into starting roles, at least for now.
