# Alex Scott is “one of Wolves’ major transfer targets this summer”

**[Wolves](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/wolves-news/) are interested in signing hugely exciting Bristol City youngster Alex Scott at the end of the season, according to reliable journalist Steve Madeley.**

### The Lowdown: Scott a huge talent

At just 19, Scott has already become a very important player for City, catching the eye with dominant and mature performances in the middle of the park.

He has started [36](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/410998/Show/Alex-Scott) [Championship](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/championship-news/) matches this season, scoring once and registering four assists, but impressing with his all-round game both on and off the ball.

Scott’s rise at City certainly isn’t going unnoticed currently, with a number of Premier League clubs [linked](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/newcastle-united-news/alex-scott-bristol-city-latest-transfer-rumours-updates/) with making a move for him during the summer transfer window, from Champions League-chasing Newcastle United to relegation-threatened West Ham, among others.

It looks as though Wolves are one of the clubs in the mix, however, following a new update regarding the teenager’s future at his current club.

### The Latest: Wolves keen on signing

Taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/SteveMadeley78/status/1636291850863538177?s=20), [*The Athletic*](https://theathletic.com/4302224/2023/03/16/alex-scott-bristol-city-wolves-leeds-tottenham/?source=emp_shared_article)‘s Madeley claimed that Scott is very much on Wanderers’ radar ahead of a potential summer move:

> “Alex Scott looks set to be one of Wolves’ major transfer targets this summer. And he looks like a player with a massive future.”

### The Verdict: Would be a major coup

Scott really does look like a special young talent with a massive future, so the idea of him ending up at Wolves is certainly an exciting prospect for supporters.

He is already such a rounded footballer, despite his tenders years, winning an average of [1.2 aerial duels](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/410998/Show/Alex-Scott) per game in the Championship this season, as well as 2.1 tackles and 1.2 dribbles per match.

Scott is both supremely gifted and a tenacious figure  – Pep Guardiola has [described](https://www.marca.com/en/football/premier-league/2023/03/03/6401d43ee2704e4dae8b4613.html) him as ‘unbelievable’, which is high praise indeed – so Wolves must do all they can to acquire his signature, with long-term planning something that is vital, rather than simply focusing on the here-and-now with experienced signings.

Granted, he may need a little time to adjust to life in the Premier League, coming in as a squad player to begin with, but the speed of his rise means it would be no shock if he was a key figure under [Julen Lopetegui](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/tag/julen-lopetegui/) in no time at all.

Scott already has [12 caps](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/alex-scott/alletore/spieler/855256) to his name for England’s Under-19s, scoring once for his country, and an Under-21s call-up surely isn’t too far away now, given the level of his performances for City throughout the 2022/23 campaign.
