Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott favours a move to Chelsea during the winter transfer window.
The England international is currently contracted to the Cherries until June 2028 and has no plans to extend his deal further.
Hence, Bournemouth have opened the door for a mid-season transfer, provided they receive a package of £100 million.
It is unclear whether Chelsea will meet the valuation this winter, but Scott seems to prefer to join the club ahead of Liverpool.
Journalist Simon Phillips reveals that Scott has been in contact with Blues manager Xabi Alonso and has been convinced to join the club.
It remains to be seen whether the Blues or Liverpool are prepared to meet the price tag when the transfer window reopens this winter.
The Premier League giants could be prepared to play the waiting game until the summer, knowing that Bournemouth could sell him for less.
Chelsea failed with an offer worth £68m last summer. A similar fee could be sufficient to prise him away at the end of the campaign.
