Bristol City manager names price for Alex Scott after commenting on Wolves transfer interest

Nigel Pearson has denied Wolves have made an offer for midfielder Alex Scott and insists only a bid over £25million would be enough to entice him away from Bristol City.

Reports in the Telegraph on Thursday suggest the Premier League side were ready to renew their interest in the 19-year-old midfielder with a £20m bid after being put off by City's £25m price-tag in January. West Ham and Tottenham are two other clubs who are keen admirers although there are thought to be up to half a dozen top-flight clubs monitoring his situation.

Scott was in brilliant form once again in City's comfortable 2-0 victory over Blackpool in front of the Sky Sports cameras and scored his first league goal of the campaign when he put the game beyond doubt in the second half. Harry Cornick's low cross was deflected into his path and the midfielder left the keeper with little chance, firing into the bottom corner.
