Tottenham completed the signing of striker Dominic Solanke from Premier League rival Bournemouth on Saturday in a deal worth a reported 65 million pounds ($83 million).

Solanke, who has played one match for England, has signed a six-year contract and makes the move a week before the start of the new Premier League season.

While the fee was undisclosed, Bournemouth said it was a “significant financial package — the largest the club has ever received for a player.” British media reported Tottenham will pay 55 million pounds ($70 million) up front, plus 10 million pounds ($12.75 million) in potential add-ons.

“After Dominic’s performances for us — in particular his impressive 2023-24 season — it has come as no surprise that a team of Tottenham’s caliber has shown an interest,” Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said.

“This move has developed quickly but Dominic has remained professional throughout and I’d like to thank him for that.”

Solanke scored 77 goals in 214 appearances for Bournemouth over five years.

He previously played for Chelsea and Liverpool.

Solanke will compete with Brazil international Richarlison for a starting spot in the coming season, which Tottenham starts away to Leicester on Aug. 19.
