Alex Scott: Andoni Iraola unsure how long Bournemouth midfielder will be out injured for

Bournemouth are unsure how long Alex Scott will be out for with his latest knee injury, says head coach Andoni Iraola.

The 20-year-old midfielder was forced off during last weekend's 6-1 defeat at Manchester City.

Scott signed for the Cherries from Bristol City in the summer for £25m and has only just returned after problems with his other knee.

Iraola said Scott's injury is a medial collateral ligament sprain.

Scott looked to be running off a dead leg when he fell to the ground in pain following a block tackle by City midfielder Rodri just before half-time.
