Story updated
The story in brief
31-second readChelsea manager Xabi Alonso could finally be about to get his hands on Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott. Chelsea spent some of the summer chasing Scott but had no choice but to postpone their pursuit after Bournemouth made it clear that he was not for sale.

Alex Scott rejects Bournemouth’s latest contract offer Midfield is a priority for Chelsea, and it looks as though they could soon address that area of the pitch thanks to Scott.
