Guernsey’s Alex Scott has been called up to Thomas Tuchel’s England squad ahead of November’s final World Cup Qualifiers. After a £25 million move from Bristol City to Bournemouth, Scott has impressed in the Premier League, catching the attention of the England manager.
Scott joins an elite group of Channel Islanders, including Matt Le Tissier and Graeme Le Saux, who have represented the England men's team.
“He had an excellent [Under-21s] Euros, he won the title. Lee [Carsley] was full of praise; he did an excellent job in midfield with Elliot Anderson. He is a regular starter for Bournemouth, who are overperforming constantly, and he is a starter for them.”
“He puts the intensity in, he gets minutes, so we thought this is the perfect time to reward him, get to know him better and see what he can bring to the team.”
Summary: Alex Scott’s impressive Premier League form has earned him an England call-up, reflecting his growing impact and potential in international football.
