Bournemouth have today confirmed the signing of versatile Chelsea defender Nathan Ake on a season-long loan deal ahead of the 2016/17 campaign.
Ake, who can be utilised as a left-back or centre-back, spent last term on loan at Watford, where he scored one goal and made 28 appearances in all competitions.
The Netherlands under 21 international has also spent time at Reading, where he made five Championship appearances during a month’s loan back in early 2015.
