Antonio Silva today travelled to Bournemouth for a medical over the weekend ahead of completing his move to the Cherries from Benfica.

The 22-year-old had been Bournemouth's top defensive target this summer as the club looked to replace Marcos Senesi, who departed at the end of his contract following the conclusion of last season before joining Tottenham Hotspur.

The last month has seen a number of rumours linking Cherries stars to other Premier League clubs.

In particular, Alex Scott, Rayan, Junior Kroupi and Tyler Adams have been four of the more "popular" names on the lips of journalists and social media users alike.

But which player would you WORST fear leaving?

Bournemouth are reportedly interested in signing Fiorentina centre-back Pietro Comuzzo, reports Nicolo Schira - with Torino also said to be in the race for the 21-year-old as the Italian club reshapes its squad this summer.

Fiorentina have already strengthened with the arrivals of Radu Drăgușin and Arthur Atta, while Alex Jimenez has joined from Bournemouth, making Comuzzo one of the players who could now move on.

According to Milan-based journalist Gianluigi Longari, Bournemouth are among a number of clubs keeping tabs on Colombian midfielder Richard Rios, although his future at Benfica remains far from certain. Longari reports that several sides have made exploratory enquiries, with Napoli and AC Milan joined by Atletico Madrid and the Cherries in showing an interest.

With Andoni Iraola expected to bolster his squad ahead of another demanding Premier League campaign, Bournemouth continue to be linked with midfield reinforcements as they look to add both quality and depth. While there is no indication that talks have progressed beyond initial enquiries, Rios' name is the latest to emerge as the Cherries assess potential additions during the summer transfer window.

AFC Bournemouth are reportedly preparing to make an official approach to Sassuolo for highly-rated defender Tarik Muharemović.

According to Italian journalist Nicolò Schira, the Cherries are ready to submit a formal bid for the Bosnia and Herzegovina international, although any deal could be complicated by Juventus, who retain a 50 per cent sell-on clause following his move to Sassuolo last summer.
