Bournemouth are ready to sign AC Milan forward, Alex Jimenez permanently for €22m at the end of his current loan spell, Softfootball understands.
Jimenez has impressed since he joined the club from AC Milan and got one of the goals during Bournemouth’s 3-2 win over Liverpool in the premier league match-day 23 in front of home fans.
Bournemouth sold Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City this January and are delighted that Jimenez has stepped up to effectively replace the Ghana international and according to Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, a permanent deal is close. He informs:
Bournemouth are prepared to sign Alex Jimenez from AC Milan on permanent deal in the summer, if all goes to plan. €22m deal ready, Real Madrid to receive 50% of the fee as previously agreed.
Despite four consecutive draws heading into the match at the weekend, Liverpool were unbeaten in their last 13 matches while Andoni Iraola’s side had been decimated by injuries and went into the game with only one win in 14 matches, but ruthlessly exposed the Reds.
Bournemouth will hope to continue in their newly found winning form when they face Wolves in the premier league match-day 24 on Saturday at the Molineux Stadium.
