Ghana winger Christian Atsu has already set his sights on scoring his first Premier League goal, after he trained with his new team-mates for the first time.
Atsu reported for his first pre-season training session at the club three days later than his new team-mates due to international commitments.
And the Chelsea loanee, who spent last season on loan at fellow Premier League club Everton, says he believes he is at a club with people who will help him ensure he reaches his potential.
“Getting to a new club is not easy,†he told BBC Radio Solent.
“You have to work really hard and make new friends which is also difficult, but I am trying!
“I think with Bournemouth, the way I see how the players are, they’re really friendly and their coaches are also supportive so I think everything will be easy for me here.
“I can’t wait (for the new season) because last season wasn’t that good for me, but this season I am trying to work hard and get into the game, and to score my first Premier League goal.â€
