Bournemouth aim for a £26 million striker in a transfer carousel involving Brentford and Newcastle
In a significant move for the Premier League, Amine Adli has officially completed his transfer from Bayer Leverkusen to Bournemouth on a permanent basis. The 25-year-old Midfielder, who had made 143 appearances for Leverkusen since joining from Toulouse in 2021, has signed a five-year contract with Bournemouth.
The reported transfer fee is around €29 million (£25 million), equivalent to approximately $33.7–33.8 million [1][2][3][4][5]. Adli directly contributed to 22 goals in all competitions for Leverkusen during the 2023/24 season.
However, the search results do not provide direct information or any explicit connection between Adli’s transfer and the potential moves of Dango Ouattara, Yoane Wissa, or Jacob Ramsey. The focus of all sources is solely on Adli’s completed move to Bournemouth and the broader context of Bayer Leverkusen’s significant squad changes this summer.
Meanwhile, the transfer saga surrounding Yoane Wissa continues. The Brentford striker has reportedly agreed to a move to Newcastle, with the Magpies hoping to have him signed by the end of the week in a deal that would be around £35m. The sale of Bryan Mbeumo to Manchester United initially blocked the potential transfer of Wissa, but it seems the issue has been resolved.
Wissa, at 28, sees a move to Newcastle as a last chance to play Champions League football. His refusal to train with his teammates due to the transfer situation further underscores his determination to leave Brentford.
As for Jacob Ramsey, Newcastle are also expected to land him from Aston Villa. The initial statement from Brentford was that Ramsey wasn't for sale, but they have softened that stance and are waiting to sign a replacement.
The transfer of Adli to Brentford is dependent on Bournemouth signing a replacement for Ouattara. The versatile player, who can play as a left winger, right winger, or centrally, has been a target for Brentford as a potential replacement for Wissa. However, the status of Ouattara's transfer remains unclear at this time.
On a separate note, Liverpool have agreed a £26m plus add-ons deal for a defender, and Tottenham are leading against PSG in the UEFA Super Cup, with Micky van de Ven scoring the first goal.
