Bournemouth's Alex Scott Out for Weeks with Thigh Injury
Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has been ruled out for six to eight weeks due to a thigh injury, impacting both the England National Team and his club. The 23-year-old sustained the injury prior to the Nations League match against the Czech Republic, following an impressive full international debut in a 7-0 victory over Croatia, where he played 70 minutes.
England manager Thomas Tuchel noted that Scott had trained fully without issues before the Croatia match and even completed additional work. Despite feeling discomfort during the game, Scott was reluctant to leave the pitch, believing he could finish the match.
Tuchel also confirmed that Arsenal defender Ezri Konsa would miss the Czech Republic fixture as a precaution due to a minor injury. Scott's absence could mean missing up to nine matches for Bournemouth, including Premier League games and Europa League fixtures against Sturm Graz, AC Milan, and Sparta Prague.
