The England striker has scored four goals in his last five games, including a goal in Bournemouth’s 3-0 win at Old Trafford against Manchester United over the weekend.
The form has already put the former Liverpool striker on point to finish better than last season when he scored six goals in 31 appearances, although he did provide seven more assists.
His form has attracted praise from former Manchester United midfielder Owen Hargreaves, who says if he had that opportunity, he would take him to the Red Devils club.
‘I would take him at Manchester United, all day. At Chelsea, he was the prized academy player. He went to Liverpool with that brilliant front three. That generational front three. He was never going to break into that. But I think he would have learnt and been mentored from Firmino, Mane, and Salah. We saw it with Wilf (Zaha) when he went to Manchester United. He wasn’t ready. He was too young. I think now, Solanke, he will get another big move, whether it’s Man United or not. But to get a kid that big and technically that good, who is smart enough, can run the channels and press. He will get another chance at the top, I am certain.’ Owen Hargreaves said.
Andoni Iraola’s team have had a good run of form lately, winning four out of their last five matches, including victories over Newcastle and Manchester United. The Cherries’ last defeat was a 6-1 loss to Manchester City on November 4.
Their next fixtures include a home game against Luton Town before an away trip to Nottingham Forest and a boxing day clash with Fulham at Vitality Stadium, while their final game of the year will be away to Tottenham.
