DANIEL Jebbison is reportedly having a medical at Watford FC ahead of a proposed loan move.
Adam Levanthal from The Athletic reports that the striker is at the Hornets for the tests and will join the Championship side for the 2024/2025 season.
Jebbison played 45 minutes in Cherries Carabao Cup game against West Ham last night, after seeing plenty of minutes through pre-season following the departure of Dominic Solanke to Tottenham Hotspur.
With the club-record signing of Evanilson, Jebbison started Sunday's Premier League game from the bench, but did start in the capital against the Hammers yesterday, before being substituted for the Brazilian.
Andoni Iraola has been clear that Jebbison leaving on loan has been the plan since he signed, although this was delayed by the Solanke departure and the long-term injury of Enes Unal, who had surgery over the summer.
The Basque boss has said that a decision on whether Jebbison would go out on loan would be left to the last minute to assess if he was needed as cover at Cherries due to Unal's injury.
The 21-year-old signed a four year contract for AFC Bournemouth this summer, after leaving Sheffield United.
