Overview

• The 23-year-old winger joins Brentford from Bournemouth after scoring 11 goals in 88 Premier League appearances since 2023.
• Brentford funded the deal with a club-record £42 million fee that eclipsed last summer’s £30 million purchase of Igor Thiago.
• Bournemouth agreed to sell only after Ouattara made clear his desire to leave, with the final fee to include add-ons.
• Manager Keith Andrews highlighted Ouattara’s top-flight experience and noted he lacked consistent playing time at Bournemouth.
• Ouattara’s arrival could free Yoane Wissa for a move to Newcastle United and Bournemouth are pursuing Bayer Leverkusen’s Amine Adli as his replacement.
