Enes Ünal leaves Bournemouth to return to Getafe

Enes Ünal, 29-year-old Turkish international striker, ends his time with Bournemouth in the Premier League to return to Getafe CF in La Liga. The centre-forward, whose stay on the south coast of England was disrupted by injuries, initially arrived on loan in January 2024, then transferred permanently shortly after. Bournemouth thus frees up a place and reduces its payroll, while retaining a percentage on a possible resale of its striker.

Enes Ünal, the 29-year-old Turkish striker, leaves Bournemouth and officially returns to Getafe, a La Liga club where he notably made his mark in Spain. This decision comes after a difficult period for the player with the English club, where he did not completely succeed in establishing himself, slowed down on several occasions by recurring injuries.

Arriving at Bournemouth in January 2024 in the form of a loan from Getafe, Ünal then saw his transfer definitively materialize for compensation of around 13 million euros. However, his time with the Cherries was not easy: in 58 official matches, the Turkish international only found the net five times.

This disappointing performance, strongly impacted by his repeated absence due to injuries, led Bournemouth leaders to question his future. In a press release, the English club was keen to underline the professionalism and good integration of the player into the group: “Enes was a valued figure in the locker room, contributing as much on the pitch as off it. The club thanks Enes for his commitment and wishes him every success for the rest of his career. »

For Bournemouth, this departure also makes it possible to reduce the wage bill, in a context where management was seeking to balance the books after several investments in the transfer market. The club could nevertheless still receive up to 1.5 million additional euros in the form of bonuses, as well as a percentage of 20% on any future resale of Enes Ünal, therefore retaining a financial interest in the rest of the career of its former striker.

For its part, Getafe welcomes the return of a player it knows well. In a Spanish championship where competition remains fierce, the Madrid club should be able to count on Ünal's motivation to revive its form and regain the efficiency in front of goal that made its reputation in La Liga.

As for Bournemouth, the page seems to have turned and other movements could follow, in particular with the possible sale of full-back Max Aarons, while the transfer window is in full swing in England and Europe.
