Bournemouth are set to complete the signing of Bayer Leverkusen attacker Amine Adli (25). According to Florian Plettenberg, the Moroccan’s move to the Premier League club is considered a ‘done deal’ after both parties reached an agreement for a €30m transfer.
Bournemouth will pay an initial €21m plus €9m in add-ons, some of which may be unachievable. Plettenberg further reports that a realistic total is around the €27m fee.
Bayer Leverkusen have also given the green light for Adli to undergo a medical. The former Toulouse player – who also had interest from Sunderland and Marseille – has already provided one assist for B04 this season during their DFB Pokal win against Sonnenhof Großaspach.
Adli’s move to Bournemouth comes just hours after it was reported that the Bundesliga side are closing on an agreement with Manchester City to sign Argentine midfielder Claudio Echeverri on a season-long loan without an option to buy, beating Borussia Dortmund to sign the 19-year-old.
