Bornemouth officially announced that it will renew its contract with 26-year-old England midfielder Marcus Tavenier until 2029.

Tavenier, 26, joined the Bournemouth Club in the summer window of 2022, and has played 93 games for the Cherry Legion in various competitions. Its highlights include: a brilliant goal of Fulham from 25 yards in April 2023, and a South Coast Derby away goal last season - a victory that lifted Bournemouth to fifth place in the Premier League and set a record for unbeaten in the team's history in the top league.

Tavenier has started all three league games in the club this season. In the recent game of defeating Wolves 1-0 at Vitality Stadium, Tavenie scored the winning goal, opening the individual goal account for the 2025-26 season, and also helping the Cherry Legion achieve its first victory in the new season. After the renewal was completed, Thiago Pinto, president of football operations at Bournemouth, said: "Whenever you wear a shirt, Tavenie always goes all out. He is a player we are very happy to continue to work with. He is a popular figure in the locker room. I look forward to his leadership in the next few seasons - this trait will become more and more important as the requirements and challenges of the Premier League continue to improve."

Tavenie also expressed: "Thank you for everything Bournemouth has given me in the past few years. . The club showed recognition for me and offered a new contract so that I could continue to play in this team that gave me good times, which made me very happy. It has become my second homeland to love, and it is a wonderful feeling not only for me, but also for my family. "

"We started the new season well, and even the first round against the defending champions, we showed good shape. Since then, we have continued to show the strength we had last season, and hope that this momentum can continue for a long time."
