BBC: Priority Man Utd target 'pushing to leave' Premier League club as they open door to mid-season sale

According to theBBC, the Cherries will open the door to a mid-season sale for their midfield starlet if an offer of £100 million arrives. It comes afterScott rejected the last two contract offers Bournemouth have tabled, making it clear his future lies elsewhere.

Bournemouth made it abundantly clear over the summer that the 23-year-old was not for sale under any circumstances. They even rejected two bids, the second of which was in the region of £64m, from Chelsea.

Will the Red Devils be in the mix for Scott's signature? However, the midfield is now no longer viewed as high a priority as the defence is, with the full-back department particularly depleted.

United are expected to prioritise the backline at the end of the campaign, though, at this rate, reinforcements will be essential in the winter.
