Prior to moving to England, Daka had an impressive goalscoring record in Austria with Liefering and Red Bull Salzburg, scoring plenty of goals and in the 2020-21 campaign a return of 27 goals in 28 games did not go unnoticed by the Foxes who paid around £23 million.
Bournemouth have been happy with the recent impressive form of Dominic Solanke , but do want to add strength in depth to their attack and the arrival of Daka provides cover.

Daka has three years remaining on his Leicester City deal.
