Bournemouth have sealed the signing of England striker Dominic Solanke from Liverpool for £19m, sparking hopes of more playing time for Jordan Ayew at Crystal Palace.
Solanke, 21, had been due to join Crystal Palace on loan earlier this week but the deal fell through because of fitness concerns.
The arrival of Solanke at Crystal Palace could have limited playing time for Jordan Ayew but with the decision of Bournemouth to sign him, the Ghana star will retain hopes of playing in more matches for the London-based club.
Bournemouth are about to allow forward Jermain Defoe join Scottish Premiership side Rangers.
It is understood Solanke cannot move to the Cherries on loan under Premier League regulations.
Bournemouth are also set to sign Reds right-back Nathaniel Clyne on loan until the end of the season.
Solanke, a former England youth international who has one senior cap - against Brazil in 2017 - joined Liverpool from Chelsea on a free transfer in 2017.
He has not made a first-team appearance for the Premier League leaders this season and was ruled out of recent matches because of a muscle problem.
