Bournemouth handed Kluivert boost before Palace
Bournemouth join Manchester City and Chelsea in tracking Cruzeiro’s 17-year-old midfielder Eduardo Pape after his U17 exploits. No bids yet, with talk of a €30m-€40m price and multiple European suitors.
Andoni Iraola is shortlisted after Bournemouth’s unbeaten April, with wins over Arsenal and Newcastle and a draw with Leeds. Fans can vote before 12:00 BST on 4 May.
Andoni Iraola, set to leave Bournemouth this summer, is admired by Man United and is a contender for their manager role, though Michael Carrick remains favourite. Chelsea and Crystal Palace also track him.
Predicted XI vs Palace: Petrovic; Truffert, Senesi, Hill, Jimenez; Scott, Christie; Tavernier, Kroupi, Brooks; Evanilson. Rayan tipped to be on the bench again against a back five.
Juventus prepare a new offer for Marcos Senesi, who is out of contract at Bournemouth this summer. The centre-back wants around €5m per year after rejecting Juve’s initial €3m proposal.
Justin Kluivert returns to full training after knee surgery and could make the bench vs Crystal Palace if he completes the week. His comeback would boost Iraola’s attack for a key four-game run-in.
