Bournemouth to sell another star player?

Bournemouth have brought through so many top talents in recent times who ended up moving to bigger clubs for major profit.

Antoine Semenyo, Dean Huijsen, and Milos Kerkez are the best examples, and one imagines the same could soon be true of current stars like Alex Scott, Eli Junior Kroupi, and Rayan.

Truffert is another, but Bournemouth will want to ensure they don’t lose too many of their most important players at once.

United will surely need to be fast to have any hope of signing Truffert, as a deal will only be harder to get done if the likes of Scott and Kroupi also move in the near future.
