At Bramall Lane, Ange Postecoglou’s team defeated Sheffield United, who had already been demoted, 3-0 to seal the season victory.
They ended up in fifth position with 66 points as a result, which qualified them for the UEFA Europa League.
Planning for the rapidly coming summer transfer window will now start, and it looks like one Tottenham target will be leaving the team.
Andoni confirms Lloyd Kelly will depart Bournemouth
Following Bournemouth’s 2-1 loss to Chelsea, Andoni Iraola, the manager, made it official that Lloyd Kelly would be departing the team.
Jordan Clark said on X, “As expected, Andoni Iraola has confirmed to @solentsport that Lloyd Kelly has played his last game for #afcb.”
Tottenham, Liverpool, and Manchester City are among the Premier League teams that have expressed interest in signing the left-footed center back, according to HITC.
Kelly’s South Coast contract expires at the end of June, making him a free agent. The Spurs will need to act quickly to stifle interest.
Lloyd Kelly statistics
Kelly, a “incredible” defender, has had an amazing season with The Cherries, and his numbers only serve to reinforce that feeling.
The 25-year-old’s outstanding defensive acumen is demonstrated by the fact that, according to FBref, he ranks in the top two percent for clearances and the top 14 percent for aerial duels won.
He’s also quite confident in the air, and being a left-footed native, he’d be a fantastic backup for Micky van de Ven.
Spurs can’t lose on a free.
