Leganes defender Diego Rico wanted by Bournemouth

Leganes defender Diego Rico is wanted by Bournemouth.

The Daily Mail says Bournemouth are continuing talks with Leganes for left-back Diego Rico.

Manager Eddie Howe wanted Celtic's Kieran Tierney, as did Everton, but with the asking price at £25m he has focused attention on 25-year-old Rico.

The Spaniard still has a relatively high release clause at £17.5m but Bournemouth hope it represents better value.

Tierney is expected to remain with Celtic for the coming season.
