Once labeled a Chelsea reject, Dominic Solanke is rewriting the narrative at Bournemouth — and doing it in style.

This season, he’s been one of the most consistent strikers outside the top six, combining power, movement, and a keen eye for goal. His ability to hold up play and bring others into the game has added a new layer to Bournemouth’s attack.

Under manager Andoni Iraola, Solanke has found a system that suits him. He’s no longer just a target man — he’s a confident, complete forward.

What’s even more impressive is his mentality. Solanke has faced criticism and setbacks in his career but kept improving quietly behind the scenes.

Now, he’s leading by example, and if he keeps this up, bigger clubs may soon come calling.

Aston Villa resmi memperpanjang kontrak Douglas Luiz hingga 2028. Gelandang asal Brasil ini jadi salah satu pemain paling konsisten di bawah asuhan Unai Emery.

Musim lalu, Luiz mencetak 7 gol dan mencatatkan assist krusial yang membawa Villa finis di zona Eropa. Peran sentralnya membuat klub ingin mengamankannya dari incaran tim lain.

“Saya bahagia di sini dan ingin terus berkembang bersama tim ini,” kata Luiz. Fans Villa pun senang mendengar kabar ini karena sempat muncul rumor soal minat dari Arsenal dan Juventus.

Kontrak baru ini juga dilengkapi dengan kenaikan gaji dan klausul khusus yang dirahasiakan pihak klub.

Dengan skuad solid dan pemain kunci bertahan, Aston Villa siap melanjutkan performa impresif mereka di musim depan.
