Bristol City look set for another payday from Alex Scott's career, with owner Steve Lansdown revealing the club would financially benefit should AFC Bournemouth choose to sell the midfielder on, according to BBC News.
Scott, who came through Bristol City's academy before joining Bournemouth, remains tied to the Robins through a sell-on clause included in his original transfer. Any future move for the 22-year-old would therefore trigger a fresh windfall for his boyhood club.
Lansdown's comments come amid growing interest in Scott, though no formal deal or concrete transfer has been confirmed. The report offers no specifics on which clubs may be circling or what fee Bournemouth might command, but it underlines Bristol City's continued stake in Scott's development and market value even after his departure from Ashton Gate.
For a club that relies heavily on smart academy sales to balance the books, any further profit from Scott's future would represent a welcome boost — proof that Bristol City's investment in nurturing young talent continues to pay dividends long after players move on.
