Adam Federici is determined to push himself for the number one shirt at Bournemouth.

The Australia goalkeeper, 31, has signed a new three-year deal with the Cherries and after committing himself to the south coast club, is eager to step into the starting role after spending most of las season on the bench behind Artur Boric.

"I'm delighted to have signed a new contact," Federici told Bournemouth's official website.

"I've worked hard this year to keep improving and the last year has been great. I've been settling in and getting to know the lads so I'm really looking forward to next year now.

"The manager played a big part in me signing, the coaching staff and the way we play football are factors too. I feel I suit the team and look forward to playing more this season, I'm working really hard towards that.

"I've never seen myself as a number two goalkeeper.

"I need to get rid of that tag and push on, I want to improve and play more next season – hopefully I can achieve that."
