Once labeled a Chelsea reject, Dominic Solanke is rewriting the narrative at Bournemouth — and doing it in style.

This season, he’s been one of the most consistent strikers outside the top six, combining power, movement, and a keen eye for goal. His ability to hold up play and bring others into the game has added a new layer to Bournemouth’s attack.

Under manager Andoni Iraola, Solanke has found a system that suits him. He’s no longer just a target man — he’s a confident, complete forward.

What’s even more impressive is his mentality. Solanke has faced criticism and setbacks in his career but kept improving quietly behind the scenes.

Now, he’s leading by example, and if he keeps this up, bigger clubs may soon come calling.
