​Bournemouth striker Solanke excited to test himself in Prem again

Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke hopes that he can seize his chance on his Premier League return.

The forward has signed a contract that will take him to the summer of 2026 with the Cherries.

Solanke, who was signed from Liverpool, struggled with the Cherries in his previous spell in the top-flight.

"Ever since I came down I just wanted to come and play football and the club's allowed me to do that, especially in the last two years," Solanke told the club website.

"I've played a lot of football and scored a lot of goals, so I'm looking forward to carrying that on in the Premier League."

"I think I'm at that age now where I've had a lot of games behind me," he added.

"I've matured a bit, I've got stronger. Like I said, I'm just happy to be able to play."
