Bournemouth table second offer for Levante midfielder Jefferson Lerma

Bournemouth have failed with a second bid for Levante midfielder Jefferson Lerma.

After having a €25m offer for the Colombia international last week, Bournemouth have returned with a new proposal worth €30m, says AS.

But Levante again turned down the bid - much to the frustration of Lerma.

The midfielder is eager to leave for England and is upset by Levante's stand, as Bournemouth's offer would make him the richest transfer in the LaLiga club's history.

Levante president Quico Catalan had previously insisted Lerma would leave for €30m.
