Solanke’s previous contract extension came after a spectacular 2021/22 season in the Championship, during which he scored 29 goals. He played a key role in Bournemouth’s promotion to the Premier League.
In the Premier League, he continued to impress, tallying six goals and seven assists and playing a key role in Bournemouth’s survival.
