Bournemouth transfer targets summer 2026: Cherries eyeing £26m winger

In this article, we will bring you all the latest Bournemouth transfer targets for the summer transfer window.

Bournemouth made several new signings last summer, but they also shipped out four of last season's first-choice back five (including the goalkeeper).

The big squad changes did not derail them, though, as they will play in Europe for the first time in their history after qualifying for the Europa League with a sixth-placed finish.

However, the Cherries were rocked by the news that Andoni Iraola left the Vitality Stadium at the end of the campaign, and he has since been replaced by Marco Rose.

Nonetheless, let us take a look at the names being linked with a move to the south coast.
