Bournemouth to sign Leeds midfielder

 

Bournemouth are poised to complete the signing of Leeds United midfielder Lewis Cook in a deal worth £6m, according to The Daily Telegraph.

 

Cherries manager Eddie Howe has been a long-term admirer of Cook and the England U-19 international is now set for his medical with the Premier League outfit on Friday.

 

Cook, 19, had entered the final 12 months of his current deal with Leeds and has been given the green light to leave the club by owner Massimo Cellino.
