As the festive period is about to get in full swing, AFC Bournemouth have announced that they have captured the permanent transfer of Scott Malone from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
A bid in the region of £150,000 was sufficient to gain the agreement of Wolves to sell Malone who has spent a successful loan spell at Dean Court since arriving.
Manager Lee Bradbury is quoted on the completion of the deal as saying: "I'm really pleased that he has signed as he has been a really good player for us. "Since I have moved him up a position into midfield, he has excelled. He has been a threat going forward with his pace and he's got a good attitude".
