Max Gradel has completed a medical with Bournemouth ahead of his proposed move to the Premier League new boys.

The 27-year-old winger is expected to finalise his transfer from French club Saint-Etienne to the Cherries on Tuesday according to Sky Sports.

Gradel, who spent time with Leicester City and Leeds United earlier in his career, will return to Dean Court where he spent time on loan during the 2007/08 season.

Ivory Coast international Gradel scored 17 goals in 37 outings for Saint-Etienne last term.
