Bournemouth are reportedly softening their stance and will consider offers exceeding £80m with add-ons for midfielder Alex Scott in the January transfer window. The 23-year-old England international has continued to turn down offers to sign a new contract, with his current deal set to expire in just over 18 months. Chelsea and Liverpool are retaining serious interest in securing a permanent transfer for the midfielder.
