Bournemouth winger David Brooks will be ready when the Premier League resumes.

When the football does return Brooks is aiming for a return to match fitness after an ankle injury and the chance to help the Bournemouth squad with a successful dip over the Premier League finishing line.

He told the club's website, "It's never nice to be out on the sidelines, especially when your team's not doing very well. We've had a struggle of a season with not just myself but Charlie Daniels, Steve Cook injured and throughout the season I don't think we've had a full team for more than a week or two.

"The boys have done extremely well in recent weeks, playing better and trying to get the results to keep us out of the bottom three.

"Towards the end of the season, hopefully we'll be able to do the fans and the club justice and stay in the Premier League."
