Having lost Tonali for 10 months following illegal betting activity, Eddie Howe and his coaching staff are on the lookout for a new midfielder and several names are already under consideration.
Although Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips is thought to be Howe’s first-choice signing, other names on the Englishman’s shortlist include Al-Hilal’s Ruben Neves and Al-Ahli’s Gabri Veiga.
