Sell or keep? The AFC Bournemouth players that could be in the shop window this summer as transfer season beckons

AFC Bournemouth are in a great position to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League in the coming weeks.

The Cherries currently sit 2nd in the Championship table, two clear of Huddersfield Town in 2nd whom they have two games in hand on, and five clear of Nottingham Forest, with whom they have played an equal number of matches.

It’s in Scott Parker’s sides’ hands then, and if promoted, there would no doubt be plenty of incomings and outgoings at the Vitality Stadium this summer.

With that being said, here, we’ve taken a look at some players we think the Cherries should either sell or keep hold of this summer.

One player that certainly looks to be on the way out this summer is Chris Mepham.

The 24-year-old defender has barely featured for the Cherries in the second half of the season and has made just 20 Championship appearances this campaign.

Recently, Scott Parker admitted that Mepham’s future may lie away from the Vitality Stadium so this is certainly one to watch this summer.

Perhaps a player that AFC Bournemouth should keep this summer is Robbie Brady.

Brady joined the Cherries on a free transfer back in October and has featured just four times for the club since due to suffering from injury.

Despite his struggle for fitness, if the Cherries go up, he could be an experienced head in the squad with extensive playing experience in the top flight himself.

For that reason, and in the hope he can get fit, it may be worth Bournemouth keeping hold of Brady this summer.

Another player that AFC Bournemouth should try to keep hold of this summer is centre-back Lloyd Kelly.

Kelly has been linked with a move to Newcastle United, with former Cherries boss Eddie Howe said to be keen to re-unite with the defender once
