And he has been given another opportunity by Bournemouth to help the club regain its status in the Premier League for the 2021-22 campaign in the Championships.

Parker to AFCBTV:

"I believe this is the perfect fit for both parties.

"I'm familiar with Bournemouth because of my relationship with Harry Arter. It's a football club I know well from watching him over the years.

"The ethos, the reputation, the journey and the challenge here is something that's very exciting for me and my staff. We want to build a team the fans can be proud of and one they feel represents them. We can't wait to get started."
