Bournemouth signed 19-year-old winger Ben Doak from Liverpool for £20 million, with £5 million in potential add-ons. Doak was enthusiastic about the move, describing Bournemouth's playing style as a good fit for his abilities. Tiago Pinto, head of football operations at Bournemouth, praised Doak for his talent and potential. Manager Andoni Iraola faced key player departures and emphasized the need for quick adjustments within the team following a tough start to the season.
"It feels like the perfect fit," Doak told Bournemouth's website, describing himself as "buzzing". "The team play very nice football. It's fast and it really suits my game, so I felt like I couldn't say no."
"Ben is an exciting young talent who has shown his quality at the highest level despite his age," said Tiago Pinto, Bournemouth's head of football operations.
Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola stated, "I hope we can do it quickly and smoothly and every player comes and gives his best, but maybe it won't be like that."
