Bournemouth Willing To Flog Leicester City-Linked Winger Ibe

Published: May 23, 2019

Bournemouth are willing to listen to offers for former England youth international of Nigerian descent, Jordon Ibe.

The one-time Nigerian Football Federation target has been linked with a move to Leicester City in the summer transfer window.

According to the Mirror, Cherries boss Eddie Howe is willing to allow Ibe to leave this summer rather than lose him on a free when his contract expires at the end of next season.

Brendan Rodgers, who was appointed manager of Leicester City in February 2019, previously coached Ibe and gave the winger his Premier League debut against Queens Park Rangers in May 2013.

Bournemouth signed Ibe from Liverpool for a club-record transfer fee of approximately fifteen million pounds in July 2016.

In 88 outings across all competitions, he has scored five goals.
