Dis morning, we dey yarn about Man United wey don comot from race for Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott. Why? Because money matter.
According to British newspaper Mirror, Bournemouth dey demand around £70 million for di 22-year-old England star. But Man United board tink say di price too high, dem value am at closer to £40 million.
Dat gap don make United shelve di deal for now. Many Premier League clubs don circle di player, with Arsenal leading di chase.
Scott don make e mind clear say e go like go Emirates if di two clubs fit agree. But Arsenal get other target: Newcastle United Brazilian Bruno Guimaraes na di top midfield target.
So, Arsenal no get intention to spend big on two players for same position dis summer. Plus Scott get doubt about how much game time e go get for Arsenal because di competition for places dey fierce.
Bournemouth dey stand firm, dem no ready to let one of dia standout players go for less than dia valuation. Dem want di biggest possible return.
So, Alex Scott summer move dey on ice until an offer land close to dia asking price.
