Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe reveals that he is still looking to make further additions to his squad having already brought in Benik Afobe and Juan Iturbe this month.

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has revealed that he is still looking to make further additions to his squad in the January transfer window.

The Cherries have already spent a club-record fee to bring in Benik Afobe from Wolverhampton Wanderers, while Juan Iturbe has also joined the club on loan from Roma.

However, Howe hinted that the club's business may not end there as he looks to adequately strengthen his squad in order to avoid relegation from the Premier League this season.

"We are still looking, no guarantees but we are hoping to add to the squad," Howe told reporters.

"Like any transfer window it is an important window, we want to try and bring the right players to the club with the right attitudes.

"I have been excited by the signings we have had so far, if we can add a bit more quality then I think we will be in a really healthy position."

Both Afobe and Iturbe could potentially make their debuts for the club in Tuesday's match against West Ham United.
