Tottenham complete £65m club-record signing of Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth

Premier League

Bournemouth

Brighton

Tottenham

After being <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tottenham-bournemouth-agree-to-sell-dominic-solanke-club-record-fee/blt599c1a7b0a99c0f5#csd19c0aece5836ef6" target="_blank">linked with a move for the Cherries forward</a>, Spurs have officially got their man. The club state the 26-year-old has signed on a deal until 2030, and could make his club debut against Leicester City later this month.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Prior to this deal, Tanguy Ndombele's £55.5m transfer from Lyon in 2019 was their most expensive purchase but Solanke's arrival eclipses that. This is also Bournemouth's most expensive sale, topping the £41m ($52m) transfer of Nathan Ake to Manchester City in 2020. While manager Ange Postecoglou said <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ange-postecoglou-tottenham-will-never-replace-harry-kane-signing-dominic-solanke/bltebdb126e91df90b0" target="_blank">Spurs will "never" replace Harry Kane</a>, they will hope Solanke can be just as prolific in front of goal for them.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">We are delighted to announce the signing of Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth. Welcome to Tottenham, Dominic! 🤍— Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) <a href="https://twitter.com/SpursOfficial/status/1822243370560856525?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 10, 2024</a></blockquote>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

One-time England international Solanke scored 21 goals and bagged four assists for Bournemouth last season. The forward began his career at Chelsea but struggled to make an impact there. A 2017 move to Liverpool didn't bear much fruit but he was able to rebuild his career at the Cherries.

DID YOU KNOW?

Solanke, who also had a loan spell at Vitesse in the Eredivisie in 2015-16, could make his Tottenham debut away to newly-promoted Leicester City on August 19 in the return of the new Premier League season.
