Lewis Cook insists he is enjoying his time at Bournemouth.

The midfielder has garnered interest from Liverpool and Chelsea.

Quizzed about the links to Liverpool and Chelsea, Cook exclusively told the Daily Echo: "I have just started playing football here.

"I had been out for a long time, so I am just focusing on Bournemouth at the moment.

"I am loving being back and playing football.

"I just forget about it (the speculation) really.

"You've just got to focus on your football here and keep enjoying it. I am obviously enjoying playing football again – that's all I am focusing on right now."

On whether he was fully committed to Eddie Howe's side, Cook replied: "Yeah, definitely. I am enjoying my football here, it's a great place to be and play great football."
