Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott says being called up by England is his “ultimate goal” as he reflects on a “whirlwind” 2025.
The 22-year-old helped England win the European Under-21 Championships in June, when he started five of the Three Lions’ six matches.
He has gone on to establish himself in the Cherries’ side this season, scoring his first goal in the 2-1 win over Brighton earlier this month.
“To play for the England senior team would be one of the proudest moments of my life,” Scott told BBC Radio Guernsey.
“It’s down to me, I’ve got to keep progressing as a footballer, keep enjoying football, improving day on day and hopefully I impress the England manager and get my chance.
“Obviously it’s a long way to go; I know that and I’ve got to improve a lot of things to get there, but fingers crossed I do that.
“I’m working very hard every single day and every game I play for this club.
“I’ve got to impress because the level of players in that England team at the minute is frightening, so it’s going to be tough to get to that level and stay at that level.”
