Max Gradel completes permanent move from Bournemouth to Toulouse

Bournemouth have confirmed that winger Max Gradel has departed the club on a permanent basis after agreeing to join Toulouse.

The 30-year-old spent last season with the Ligue 1 outfit, making 33 appearances in total and contributing to 11 goals.

Ivory Coast international Gradel will now stay with Toulouse for the long-term, having completed a transfer for a fee in the region of £2m.

Gradel departs the Vitality Stadium after making 65 appearances for Bournemouth across two spells, with the Cherries splashing out £7m to sign him from Saint-Etienne in August 2015.

Bournemouth have also offloaded striker Benik Afobe this summer for £12.5m.
