The newly promoted club could become the latest moneybags in the Premier League following interest from an American investor.
American Billionaire Bill Foley is in talks to buy Premier League club AFC Bournemouth from its Russian ownership.
A group led by Foley has indicated interest in taking over the Cherries who are being marketed by Montminy & Co, per The Sun via The Athletic.
Bournemouth's owner, Maxim Demin is said to have listed the club for sale for four years with several investment groups having expressed interest in buying the club.
However, with Demin demanding £150 million to sell a 100% stake, only the group led by Foley has progressed talks with Demin.

Bournemouth won't be Foley's first sports team as he is already involved in the National Hockey League, NHL.
Bournemouth to become latest moneybags
With the plan to sell the club, on for four years now, the Cherries could become the latest club in the PL with bags of money to spend.

This weekend, the Cherries are visitors at St James's Park, where they take on the richest club in the World, Newcastle United, which is managed by former Cherries boss, Eddie Howe.
Both teams are in need of the points, separated by zero points, the two teams are tied on seven points going into this weekend round of matches.
