Max Gradel has signed a new deal with Bournemouth.

The Ivory Coast winger has put pen to a fresh four-year contract which will keep him at the Vitality Stadium until 2020.

Gradel, 28, returned to the south coast on a permanent deal from French club Saint-Etienne last summer having spent time on loan with the Cherries back in 2007 and the club is absolutely thrilled he has committed himself to the cause for the foreseeable future.

"We are delighted to secure Max's future with us," chief executive Neill Blake told the club's official website.

"He is a player we know well and a player that has done great things for this club over the years.

"As a club we are constantly looking to strive forward and Max shares that philosophy with us. He's an exciting player and one that is very much in our long-term plans."
