Dan Gosling Keen To Finish Career At Bournemouth

Dan Gosling Keen To Finish Career At Bournemouth

Bournemouth midfielder Dan Gosling has insisted he wants to finish his career at the Vitality Stadium.

The 30-year-old joined Bournemouth from Newcastle United during the 2014-2015 season, helping the Cherries win the Championship title and a first-ever promotion to the top flight of English football.

Gosling has featured 130 times in the Premier League for Eddie Howe’s men and has found the back of the net eleven times in the process.

The Plymouth Argyle academy graduate has revealed his desire to keep playing for Bournemouth while admitting he likes living on the South Coast.

"I've got huge respect for everyone at the club; the chairman, the chief exec, the coaching staff," said the former Everton man.

"All the people who work behind the scenes are all fantastic people, so I'm very settled here.”

"My little one's supposed to be starting school in September. We go on dog walks along the beach, and in the summer our family comes to stay and we have great days out, and they always say how lucky we are living here.

"It's a way of life that suits us. To bring up kids in a place like this, there's not too many better places."

It has been five years since Bournemouth secured promotion to the top division and the Englishman admits he saw the team’s quality from his early days at the club.

"It's crazy how quickly five years goes," says Gosling.

"Those few days were amazing - the Monday night win at home against Bolton, the pitch invasion, the beachfront parade, and then we jetted off to Las Vegas to celebrate! It was a whirlwind few weeks, and it's been an incredible journey.”

"When I first joined the team, I saw the quality early on. I wish I had a video recording of what I said to my agent and people around me, of how good I thought the squad was.”

"I knew we had a real chance, and I was proven right. We worked hard, we had a great spirit and we got promoted. The first year in the Premier League was tough, but five years on we're still there."
