Junior Stanislas agrees to new 3-year contract

Bournemouth has tied Junior Stanislas down to fresh terms until the end of the 2018-19 season.

The 26-year-old performed well over 21 top-flight appearances last season, helping guide the Cherries to Premier League safety with a five-point cushion.

His most notable contribution came in a 3-3 draw against Everton in November, when the winger rose the nod in a last-gasp equaliser.

"It's great to be able to secure Junior's future with us," said chief executive Neill Blake.

"He is another player that made a big impact for us last season, so it's only right to reward him for his efforts."

Stanislas was unable to participate in Bournemouth's season-opening 3-1 home loss to Manchester United due to injury, but is expected to travel with the matchday squad for Sunday's trip to West Ham United.
