Alex Scott, currently with Bournemouth, is the latest name linked with a potential switch to Arsenal. The midfielder could become a key signing should the move materialise, as the club seeks to strengthen in a key area of the pitch. Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle are reportedly waiting in the wings. Finalising a fee and payment terms remains central to closing the transfer.
