Bournemouth boss Howe: No reason to sell our best players

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe says they're under no pressure to sell their best players.

The Cherries have rejected a bid from West Ham for Callum Wilson and Matt Ritchie.

"We don't need to sell," said Howe. "We have a really ambitious owner. We want to try and improve our squad, not weaken it.

"We are desperately trying to move this team forwards and looking at it the other way, bringing recruits in to strengthen what is already a good group. That's the summer we hope to have."
