Jefferson Lerma 'to undergo Bournemouth medical'

Jefferson Lerma will reportedly undergo a medical with Bournemouth on Tuesday ahead of a £30m move from Levante.

Lerma, who impressed for Colombia at the 2018 World Cup, joined Levante from Atletico Huila in 2015, and is believed to have attracted a host of attention with his performances last term.

Bournemouth reportedly agreed a club-record deal with Levante for the midfielder at the weekend, and according to Sky Sports News, the South American will now undergo a medical ahead of a move to the Vitality Stadium.

The report claims that Bournemouth will pay an initial £25m to Levante, although the fee could eventually reach £30m.

The 23-year-old could make his Bournemouth debut in their Premier League opener against Cardiff City this weekend.
