Leicester City and Liverpool are just some of the Premier League clubs tipped to be interested in AFC Bournemouth winger David Brooks.
Leicester and Liverpool Among Clubs Interested in Bournemouth Winger David Brooks
A Number of Premier League Clubs in the Race
Following their relegation from the Premier League last month, Bournemouth may have to sell some of their key players. Defender Nathan Ake has already moved to Manchester City for £41 million and the Welshman could be next.
However, despite growing interest in Brooks, new Cherries boss Jason Tindall has insisted there’ll be no ‘fire sale’ of key players.
Alongside Liverpool and Leicester, the Leicester Mercury reports that Newcastle United, Crystal Palace and West Ham United are also monitoring the situation.
According to The Sun, Liverpool are preparing a bid of £35 million for the 23-year-old.
Bournemouth Winger Brooks in Demand Despite Injury-Hit Season
The Welshman had a difficult season, dealing with both a long-term injury and relegation from the Premier League. Brooks played in the Cherries’ final nine league games but couldn’t halt their slide.
Since signing from Sheffield United in 2018, the Welsh international has played 42 times for the South coast side. In that time, he’s netted eight times and provided five assists.
At just 23-years-old and a fair amount of Premier League experience, the speculation is unsurprising.
Bournemouth Boss Confident of Keeping Squad Together
With large transfer fees being offered, it will be a difficult task for Tindall to keep his most valuable assets. However, he believes the club will not have to have a widespread clearout.
The ex-Bournemouth player said he took the job because he knew the club didn’t want to sell players en masse.
At his first press conference, the 42-year-old said: “I wouldn’t be sitting here now if I didn’t have assurances.
“If the club had said fire sale, losing eight or nine players, I wouldn’t be sitting here now.”
