One of the players who has been linked with a move away from Bournemouth is Lloyd Kelly.

A report from the Daily Telegraph last month revealed that West Ham United were looking into the possibility of swooping for the defender.

A key player for Bournemouth this season, Kelly has made 21 appearances in the Championship and is currently averaging a respectable WhoScored match rating of 6.86.

In a fresh update, talkSPORT journalist Alex Crook has told GIVEMESPORT that Bournemouth will not be looking to entertain any offers for Kelly during the current window.

Another Bournemouth player who has recently attracted interest from the Premier League is Dominic Solanke.

A report from the Daily Telegraph earlier this month suggested that Newcastle United were keeping tabs on the forward ahead of a potential move.

The Magpies have since bolstered their attacking options by signing Chris Wood from Burnley.

However, given that Eddie Howe’s side are facing an uphill task to avoid relegation this season, they may decide to test Bournemouth’s resolve by submitting a bid for Solanke.

Unless they receive a huge offer from the Magpies, the Cherries should hold firm as losing Solanke at this stage of the season could hinder their chances of securing a return to the Premier League as the forward has already scored an impressive total of 18 goals in 26 Championship appearances during the current campaign.
