Chelsea are set to make a major push to strengthen their midfield in the January transfer window, with Bournemouth's Alex Scott emerging as their top target.
The Blues' scouting team has been closely monitoring the progress of the young midfielder as the 2026/27 season kicks off. After an impressive start to the season, Scott has captured the attention of Chelsea's hierarchy, securing his place on their priority list for the upcoming window.
According to reports from Football London, Chelsea plan to explore the possibility of a deal as soon as the winter transfer market opens. Scott, who is also a rising star for the England national team, has a market value assessed at around 50 million euros by Transfermarkt. The club is ready to make a decisive move and submit an official inquiry for the talented midfielder in January.
