AFC Bournemouth are the subject of several transfer rumours, with a new link to a midfielder emerging. Our analysis of the past seven days shows the club has been tied to 6 possible arrivals and 6 potential exits. The items below are the latest news on the most important transfer rumours, with the hottest storyline right now concerning Oliver Månsson.
Sydie Peck
Team Talk reported on Thursday that there is growing interest from several clubs in Sheffield United midfielder Sydie Peck. Bournemouth is one of several clubs watching Peck as they assess potential midfield additions, while Brentford, Brighton, and Crystal Palace are also monitoring the player. According to TEAMtalk, North-East rivals Newcastle United and Sunderland have been monitoring the 21-year-old this season. Promotion contenders West Ham United are also monitoring the England Under-21 international. Sheffield United is aware of the growing interest, and there is an increasing expectation that a departure in January could be sanctioned.
Alex Scott
On Thursday, Team Talk reported that Liverpool have made a new approach to intervene in Alex Scott's prospective £100 million transfer to Chelsea. The report states Liverpool have renewed their interest by making contact with Bournemouth to sign him ahead of Chelsea, and are making progress on a potential signing. Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola will be hoping to convince Scott to move to Anfield, as the two have a good relationship from their successful time together at Bournemouth. A bid of £100m is expected to be sufficient to convince Bournemouth to sell. Last Wednesday, Glen Johnson urged the playmaker to join Liverpool instead of Chelsea during the January transfer window.
Federico Gatti
Federico Gatti might decide to depart from Juventus in the January transfer window. La Stampa reported on Thursday that there is renewed interest from the Premier League. In the summer, his agents rejected various offers, which included one from Bournemouth, and these clubs could return for Gatti in January.
Andrés Gómez
According to Globo.com on Wednesday, Andrés Gómez has received contacts from Bournemouth in recent weeks, with the English club seeking scouting information and values. It is reported that Vasco is considering offers of 15 to 20 million euros for Gómez in the next transfer window. The player has a contract with Vasco until January 2031, and the club's management is aware that he aims to return to Europe in the medium term.
Oliver Månsson
Representatives from the Premier League club Bournemouth were at Gamla Ullevi on Sunday to follow Oliver Månsson. It was also reported that scouts from Bournemouth, Chelsea, and Leicester were present to watch the 17-year-old IFK Göteborg midfielder. According to IFK Göteborg's scouting manager David Vukovic, there is now more interest in booking meetings with the club, and meetings are booked with several big clubs, including some from the Premier League.
E. Kroupi
According to TEAMtalk on Wednesday, Tottenham Hotspur are exploring a move for Eli Junior Kroupi and are prepared to consider offering players in exchange to move ahead of the competition for him. Kroupi was one of Tottenham’s top targets in the summer, but an injury prevented a deal from being completed. Spurs are considering whether a player-exchange proposal could help them secure a deal, and Wilson Odobert, Mikey Moore, and Luca Williams-Barnett are mentioned as possible players who could form part of an offer. Spurs want to determine whether a deal is possible in January 2027.
Rayan
According to El Nacional on Thursday, Chelsea are prepared to spend as much as €90 million ($99.8 million) on Rayan, a 20-year-old Brazilian winger who has also been frequently connected with Liverpool. The report suggests that such a significant expense would require changes to the Chelsea squad.
