Bournemouth boss Howe denies immediate Begovic sale plans

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe denies there's any immediate plans to sell Asmir Begovic.

Howe has played down speculation that the decision to play 17-year-old Mark Travers in the win over Tottenham means Begovic is on his way out of the club.

“Some of the things that have come out this week have been totally inaccurate.

“We decided to play Mark (Travers, against Tottenham), we rested Asmir.

“He's been given the final week of the season off to spend some extended time with his family but nothing malicious or any stories to read into that to say that he's played his last game for Bournemouth.

“Who knows what the summer brings for him and for us but there has been no fall-out and he's still a top professional."
