Bournemouth players shared their instant reaction after the club announced yet another contract extension.
After Bournemouth’s successful season last term, where the side collected their highest-ever Premier League points tally, the team have seen numerous changes in the squad.
Dean Huijsen, Illia Zabarnyi and Dango Ouattara were among the players to leave the Vitality Stadium, but the board have backed Andoni Iraola in the market.
The side brought in the likes of Bayode Diakite, Djordje Petrovic, Ben Doak, while Alex Jimenez joined Bournemouth on deadline day.
The hierarchy have also remained active following the conclusion of the transfer window as Bournemouth have agreed new deals for Marcus Tavernier and James Hill.
Now, the Cherries have confirmed yet another player extension, which saw plenty of reaction on social media.

Crystal Palace were linked with a move for Brooks as they aimed to bring in multiple replacements for Eberechi Eze, but the Cherries were determined to keep hold of the winger despite the summer exodus.
He has battled numerous health and injury concerns over the years, but has re-established himself as a key figure under Iraola.
Last term, he featured 33 times in all competitions and has started in all three games in the Premier League this season.
Bournemouth fans reacted in excitement after Brooks’ new deal was announced, following speculation surrounding his future in the summer and putting the rumours to bed.

Brooks’ new deal will be a major boost for Bournemouth ahead of their clash with Brighton on 13 September, particularly given his own record.
Brooks holds a fantastic goal tally against Brighton, as he has scored four times whilst providing one assist – his joint-best return against any club, alongside Birmingham.
With that in mind, another goal or assist would be the perfect way to celebrate his new announcement at the Vitality Stadium and underline his importance to Iraola’s side.
