The League Two outfit had signed AFC Bournemouth midfielder Matt Worthington on loan until January. The 19-year-old has become Yeovil’s thirteenth signing of the summer.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe said this about the midfielder “He has a great attitude and wants to do well, wants to learn and has all the characteristics of a Bournemouth midfielder.”
While Yeovil boss Darren Way stated “I have been monitoring Matt for some time now, so to see him break through and make his Premier League debut shows the quality and belief that Matt has.
“I would personally like to thank Bournemouth and Eddie Howe for allowing the deal to come to fruition.”
Here’s how fans reacted to the announcement:
