Bournemouth boss Gary O'Neil has completed his third signing of the January transfer window after landing Bristol City striker Antoine Semenyo for an undisclosed fee.
The Ghana international has signed a four-and-a-half-year deal at the Vitality Stadium, with the Cherries retaining an option for a further year.
The 23-year-old joins experienced goalkeeper Darren Randolph and Burkina Faso forward Dango Ouattara in moving to the south coast.
Semenyo, who featured at the World Cup in Qatar, was born in England and came through the ranks at Bristol City.
He spent time out on loan at Bath City, Newport and Sunderland and scored 21 goals in 125 games for the Robins.
"Antoine is an exciting player and one we have monitored for a while," Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said.
"He had interest from elsewhere and so we're delighted to welcome him to the club."
Bournemouth currently sit 18th in the table having been promoted from the Sky Bet Championship last season, winning just one of their last 11 league games.
