Bournemouth have announced the signing of Christian Atsu from Chelsea on a season-long loan.
The newly-promoted Premier League side have added a player who already has top-flight experience following last season's loan spell at Everton.
The winger, who can also play as an attacking midfielder, joined Chelsea in 2013, but has so far struggled to break into the first team.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe told Cherries Player: "We are loaning a player of huge potential, again we had to fight off several other Premier League clubs to get him, so we are very, very pleased.
"I think he will bring pace and ability to beat a man one-v-one which is very important in the Premier League, so for all those reasons I think he is a great signing for us."
Atsu, who also had a loan stint with Vitesse, has 40 international caps to his name since making his debut for Ghana in 2012.
