AFC Bournemouth are delighted to announce the signing of exciting striker Daniel Jebbison.

The forward arrives at Vitality Stadium on a four-year deal following the expiration of his contract at Sheffield United.

He becomes the club’s third summer signing, following the arrival of goalkeeper Alex Paulsen and the permanent addition of Enes Ünal.

AFC Bournemouth chief executive Neill Blake said: “We’re very pleased to have Daniel sign a long-term deal with us. He has many promising attributes, and has already provided some memorable moments in his young career so far.

“We look forward to overseeing Daniel continue his development, in an environment which will provide every opportunity to help him fulfil that exciting potential.”

Jebbison, 20, first signed for the Blades in 2018 following a successful trial in their academy setup.

Having progressed through the ranks at the Yorkshire club, the promising frontman made history by netting in a 1-0 victory over Everton in May 2021, becoming the youngest player to score on his first start in the Premier League at 17 years and 309 days.

He then enjoyed a fruitful loan spell with Burton Albion in League One during the 2021/22 season, finding the net nine times in 23 games in all competitions.

During that campaign, he returned to Bramall Lane to help the Blades to the Championship play-offs in May 2022.

Jebbison went on to play 19 times in all competitions the following season as Sheffield United sealed automatic promotion to the Premier League in 2023.

Canada-born Jebbison has represented England at three different youth levels. He was part of the 2022 UEFA European Under-19 Championship-winning squad.

Jebbison went on to represent the Young Lions in 2023, playing in each of the Under-20 World Cup group games.
