Bournemouth midfielder Surman convinced by Worthington potential

Bournemouth midfielder Andrew Surman is convinced by the potential of Matt Worthington.

The 19-year-old played the last 16 minutes of the final match of the season at Leicester City, where Cherries earned the point that secured their ninth-place finish.

Surman told the Daily Echo: "Matt was great when he came on and he is a really good player. He has been training with us for a while now and you can see him progressing.

"He is a nice lad and he goes about his business in the right way. I was delighted for him when he came on and I thought he gave a great account of himself.

"It is an experience he will remember and, hopefully, he will kick on next season."
