Bournemouth Set to Swap One Young Spaniard for Another

Bournemouth has reached an agreement with Sevilla for the transfer of 22-year-old right-back Juanlu Sánchez for a fee of €11 million plus €2 million in add-ons, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The Spaniard is set to join the Cherries as a replacement for his 21-year-old compatriot Alejandro Jiménez, who moved to Fiorentina last month. Sánchez made a total of 109 appearances for his boyhood club's senior team, scoring 6 goals and providing 11 assists. He is also a former youth international for Spain, with whom he won a gold medal at the Paris Olympics.
