Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has snubbed the offer of a new contract at the club, with three Premier League heavyweights reportedly circling, according to Sky Sports News.
The broadcaster understands that Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United are all keen admirers of the young midfielder, and his decision to knock back fresh terms at the Vitality Stadium is said to reflect the level of interest building around him.
While no formal bids have been reported, Scott's rejection of an extension will fuel speculation over his future, with Bournemouth potentially facing a battle to keep hold of one of their most promising talents.
None of the three suitors have been confirmed as having made an approach, and Sky Sports' report stops short of suggesting any move is imminent. For now, Scott remains a Bournemouth player, but his stance on a new deal suggests he may be open to weighing up his options should concrete offers materialise from Arsenal, Chelsea or United in the coming months.
