Bournemouth have enquired about Hull defender Curtis Davies, after they recently also enquired about his defensive partner Michael Dawson, according to The Daily Mail.
It is understood that Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe wants to bring in at least one defender with Premier League experience after watching his side concede 34 goals in 20 games. This has prompted Howe to enquire about the availability of Hull’s central defenders.
Davies has said that he will only leave the club “if the manager doesn’t want me” suggesting that unless Steve Bruce wants to re-shape his defence, Davies will not be joining Bournemouth.
Davies added however: “My contract is up in the summer and, right now, I am playing for my future. We are in talks over a new deal but, if the effort is not here to keep me, then I shall have to move on.
“I’ll be 31 at the end of the season, and I need to be playing games. I would be happy to sign on again here because I’ve been at Hull for three years and really enjoyed it.”
Bournemouth have also been linked with Southampton’s on-loan Queens Park Rangers defender Steven Caulker in their search for more Premier League experience at the back.
