AFC Bournemouth head coach Andoni Iraola has said that Dominic Solanke hasn’t trained fully with the team this week ahead of the game against Sheffield United.

A late decision was made on the striker’s fitness prior to the 2-0 win against Burnley at Turf Moor, and the boss revealed that the Cherries frontman will have to be assessed in a final training session ahead of the fixture.

He said: “Dom is in a similar position to this past week.

“He hasn’t trained fully with the team, we are trying to put him in the best positions to play tomorrow.

“Hopefully he’ll train normally this evening with his feelings we will take the decision much like we did last week.

“He’s been playing through pain, sometimes its better, sometimes it’s worse. We’re trying to manage it with these two games we have, we don’t want to put too much training on him.

“He someone who has played and trained a lot of minutes, he’s been very robust this season and maybe he doesn’t need to train as much as other players.

“I hope he can play as many minutes as he can but it’s something we’re dealing with.”

Iraola also gave updates on Marcos Senesi and Tyler Adams – and the former will not travel with the Argentina national team after picking up a hamstring injury against Burnley.

Senesi was substituted after 11 minutes in the 2-0 win at Turf Moor and will have a spell on the sidelines, while Adams is continuing his recovery, enjoying another positive step by playing for the development squad in the week.

“Marcos is out,” the boss continued.

“He will not travel with national team, he has a strain in hamstring will be out.

“I don’t think we will recover anyone ahead of the weekend but while Tyler Adams is not still fully ready, he played 30 minutes with development squad this week.

“He’s feeling well in the process, we could put him on the bench because we have spaces for him. Personally it may be a good thing but he’s continuing his process and still lacks more training. But he’s doing well.”
