# Tottenham: Paratici considering formal Scott bid

**An interesting [Tottenham Hotspur](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tottenham-hotspur-news/) transfer update has now come to light involving Championship sensation and Bristol City playmaker Alex Scott.**

### The Lowdown: Conte and Paratici meeting held…

The Lilywhites were boosted by a number of updates last week, starting with a £150 million financial windfall which will be used to back manager Antonio Conte in the summer market [(The Telegraph)](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/05/27/antonio-conte-stay-tottenham/).

In more great news for Spurs supporters, their beloved boss has elected to stay in north London for his first full [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) season in charge of the club – meeting with transfer chief Fabio Paratici in Turin last Friday to discuss transfers ([The Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2022/05/27/antonio-conte-stay-tottenham/)).

[Football Insider](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-scott-close-tabs/), sharing news on who the pair could now target, have an interesting update concerning one of the English second tier’s brightest prospects.

### The Latest: Tottenham considering ‘formal offer’ for Scott…

[According to their information](https://www.footballinsider247.com/tottenham-scott-close-tabs/), the north Londoners are ‘compiling a dossier’ on Bristol City ace Scott before deciding to push ahead with a ‘formal offer’.

As Spurs consider a bid, it is believed their former manager David Pleat has been ‘actively involved’ in running checks over the attacker.

### The Verdict: Get it done…

Dubbed ‘the Guernsey Grealish’ for his likeness and playing style, Scott has also been called ‘tremendous’ and an ‘elite’ level talent at Ashton Gate [(Bristol World).](https://www.bristolworld.com/sport/football/bristol-city/alex-scotts-remarkable-strengths-analysed-with-big-boys-watching-bristol-city-teenager-3502061)

At just 18-years-old, the teenager has been a mainstay under Nigel Pearson, starting 35 second tier matches over 2021/2022 and drawing more fouls than any of his teammates on average ([WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/182/Show/England-Bristol-City)).

You can see why he has been likened to Grealish, particularly with his ability to attract challenges and win free-kicks further up the field.

Homegrown also, potentially helping to balance Tottenham’s[glaring issue](https://www.givemesport.com/87998301-tottenham-concerned-by-crazy-situation-at-hotspur-way) in this regard, a move for Scott could well be promising.
