Key strength: Pace and dribbling
Wide creator
AFC Bournemouth sit mid-table in 9th position, and within their ranks, a new attacking spark is beginning to emerge. Ben Gannon-Doak, the 20-year-old Scottish right winger who arrived from Celtic in mid-August for a significant fee, is steadily integrating into the Cherries' first team setup. With three appearances and 180 minutes under his belt already, the €18M-rated prospect is being eased into senior football after developing through the youth ranks at Dalry Rovers, Ayr United, and Celtic. While yet to register goals or assists, his pace and dribbling ability offer Bournemouth a direct threat on the right flank—complementing the more experienced heads like Adam Smith and Lewis Cook in midfield. As a young winger finding his rhythm in the Premier League, Gannon-Doak represents both the club's present need for width and their long-term investment in Scottish talent. Expect his influence to grow as match fitness and confidence align.
