Overview
- Antoine Semenyo has joined Manchester City for a high fee, with Iraola calling him a player Bournemouth cannot replace.
- Justin Kluivert underwent knee surgery this week, adding to absences that include Tyler Adams and Ben Gannon-Doak, with Ryan Christie still a fitness concern.
- Iraola said he has only 15 outfield players available and is assessing Evanilson and Enes Unal after they reported issues following the Spurs win.
- The FA Cup third-round tie at St James' Park kicks off at 15:00 GMT today, with Newcastle managing injuries and facing a Carabao Cup semi-final next week.
- With Semenyo gone, David Brooks is expected to take on a bigger role on the flank as Bournemouth reshape their attack while working on January signings.
