Nigel Pearson is optimistic Alex Scott will remain a Bristol City player for the rest of the season at least, and believes the Robins remain the best environment for the teenage midfielder to continue to improve.
Scott has been subject to a flurry of transfer interest since the January transfer window opened with Tottenham Hotspur, Bournemouth, Leicester City, Wolves, Brighton & Hove Albion and Leeds United all linked at various times, and there are still 18 days remaining.
City’s apparent valuation for the 19-year-old also varies wildly with CBS Sports outlining last week that he’d be available for a fee in the region of £12m, while a Telegraph report claiming Wolves had made an enquiry and were told the Robins want £25m.
