Bournemouth are preparing for their first-ever European campaign next season. We examine their interest in Ousmane Diomande ahead of the transfer window.
The 22-year-old centre-back is viewed as a replacement for Marcos Senesi, who is set to depart at the end of the campaign when his contract expires.
