LONDON, Aug. 21 (Xinhua) -- AFC Bournemouth has made its second signing of the week with the transfer of Morocco international winger Amine Adli from Bayer Leverkusen.

Following Ben Gannon-Doak's arrival from Liverpool for 25 million pounds (33.6 million US dollars) on Monday, Adli joins for a similar fee.

The winger has agreed a five-year contract and could make his debut this weekend against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Adli can play as an attacking midfielder or on either flank. He moves to the Premier League after making 143 appearances for Leverkusen, with whom he won the 2023-24 Bundesliga and German Cup. However, his role was reduced last season, with just six starts from 20 league appearances.

"I'm very proud first of all to play for a club like Bournemouth. I was looking at my next move and I felt like Bournemouth was the perfect place for me," he told the Bournemouth website.

"The people around give me a lot of confidence here, and I'm very impressed with the facilities. The people at the club are full of love, so I'm very happy and proud to play for Bournemouth and hopefully achieve good things," he added.
