Real Madrid are reportedly interested in Bournemouth player Alex Scott, according to a report from journalist Miguel Serrano. Scott is a highly rated midfielder who can play a variety of different roles in the middle of the park, from playing as a deep-lying playmaker to a box-to-box player with quite underrated defensive attributes.
Scott can do pretty much everything as a midfielder. He's one of the best talents that England have produced in recent times, and he just deserves every bit of praise that is coming his way.
He recently got a call-up to England's squad for the extended international break and has impressed a lot with Bournemouth this season. He's a very tidy player on the ball who rarely gives it away.
He's a really good eight with supreme agility and press resistance, which are traits that the current midfield of Real Madrid sorely lacks, outside of a few players. His passing range is also really good.
Real Madrid need a player like Alex Scott in their team
Even though he's not the controller that Toni Kroos was and Rodri now is for Barcelona, he can still pass the ball around really well and be available for linking up the defence and the attacks seamlessly. Scott is one of the best dribblers in the Premier League, if not the world, as he consistently beats so many players with his technique and brilliant skill as a midfielder.
In some manner, he is also very similar to Bernardo Silva because he just does not like giving the ball away at all. If Real Madrid are genuinely interested in him, they need to act fast because they won't be the only ones who show any sort of interest in the player. He is one of the most sought-after talents in England right now, and teams like Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea will be willing to pay a lot of money to sign Scott from Bournemouth.
If Real Madrid are genuinely interested, they need to act fast. It is also worth noting that they should be genuinely interested because he fits the team really well. He provides a lot of the things that Real Madrid either miss or lack in the squad, or will lack as soon as Bernardo Silva's time at the club is up.
There are obviously things that he would need to improve on, but he's drastically taking huge steps every single season. If he ever joins Real Madrid, he would help the team more than most people think because of his sheer ability to hang on to the ball at all times.
Scott is a very mature player for his age, and it will be really interesting to see if he ever joins Spain because he is the most Spanish-coded English midfielder that has arrived in quite some time.
