Liverpool may drop their reported pursuit of AS Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara in favor of signing AFC Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott. According to Sky Sports, Bournemouth are reportedly open to selling Scott for around £80m, potentially as early as the January transfer window as he approaches the final 18 months of his contract.
