Bournemouth are keen on Manchester City goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu.
Bournemouth are interested in the goalkeeper who is currently on loan at Portsmouth, as per journalist Andrew Moon on Twitter (see tweet below).
A number of Championship clubs (including #AFCB) have been keeping a close eye on Gavin Bazunu. HOWEVER he can only be recalled if Man City have an injury crisis (be intrigued how that would be worded in a contract), so he's set to stay at #Pompey for the season
