Bournemouth Expresses Frustration Over Alex Scott Injury on England Duty
By Rhyter Times Desk · 2h ago
Bournemouth is dissatisfied with how the England national team managed midfielder Alex Scott after he suffered an injury that could sideline him for up to two months, according to reporting from the BBC and The Guardian.
The Guardian reports that Scott sustained a thigh problem around Saturday's 7-0 Nations League victory over Croatia, a match in which he performed well despite playing through discomfort. The injury will rule him out of further immediate action.
In response to the club's discontent, England manager Thomas Tuchel maintained that the national side exercised complete caution, stating they accepted "zero risk" and had received a "green light" to field the midfielder, as reported by The Guardian.
