Bournemouth Complete £24.7m Move for 19-Year-Old Rayan From Vasco da Gama

The 19-year-old’s five-and-a-half-year deal reflects Bournemouth’s reinvestment following Antoine Semenyo’s sale.

Overview

  • Bournemouth confirmed the transfer and contract length, with British media reporting a £24.7m fee plus up to £5.6m in add-ons, though the club did not disclose full financial terms.
  • Multiple outlets report the contract includes a €100m release clause.
  • The signing follows the January departure of Antoine Semenyo to Manchester City as the club targets long-term attacking depth.
  • Rayan registered 14 Serie A goals in 34 appearances last season and 20 in 57 across all competitions, and he has represented Brazil at under-20 level.
  • President of football operations Tiago Pinto called Rayan a player of “enormous potential,” while reports note significant outside interest and suggest he may need time to adapt to the Premier League.
