"According to a report from Fichajes, City are interested in young Cherries midfielder Alex Scott. The 22-year-old who, like Semenyo, spent some of his formative years with Bristol City and is the step-brother of Manchester United centre-back Maya Le Tissier has made 21 Premier League appearances for Bournemouth this year. The Spanish outlet claims that City are keen to strike now before the price rises, but don't necessarily see him as an immediate nailed-on starter."
"The Ghana international headed to the Etihad Stadium earlier this month in a deal worth around 65m, having been with the Cherries for three years. And he got off to a flying start, scoring in his first two outings against Exeter City and Newcastle United, in the FA Cup and Carabao Cup respectively.

Manchester City signed Antoine Semenyo from Bournemouth for around £65m, and he scored in his first two outings, against Exeter City and Newcastle United in the FA Cup and Carabao Cup. City are reportedly targeting Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, a 22-year-old who spent part of his youth at Bristol City and is the step-brother of Maya Le Tissier. Scott has made 21 Premier League appearances this season and received a first senior England call-up last year without making his debut. City are said to be willing to offer over £50m, viewing Scott as a future investment rather than an immediate guaranteed starter. FourFourTwo judges the move sensible for long-term planning but suggests Scott currently benefits from regular football under Andoni Iraola.
