Manchester United set to explore Alex Scott after missing out on Mateus Fernandes.
Spurs to pay £85m for Fernandes, a figure
#MUFC were not prepared to meet.
Fernandes never communicated to either club a sole preference, leaving it to both to negotiate with West Ham.
Bournemouth want Scott to sign a new deal and are prepared to offer him a release clause within in. They value Scott around £80m.
Arsenal, Manchester City, Spurs and Chelsea other clubs to watch. Arsenal already directly informed on Bournemouth’s stance.
#MUFC to proceed. Sander Berge another name discussed.
