Bournemouth sign up for $1 million summer tournament in the USA with support from Michael B Jordan

Bournemouth are set to enter a team in the seven-a-side The Soccer Tournament during June, supported by Hollywood star Michael B Jordan.

The Cherries' squad will feature club greats and former professionals, as well as academy players at the TST championships in Cary, North Carolina at the start of June, with a one million US Dollars (£777,370) prize for the winners.

Jordan - who starred as Adonis Creed in the boxing movie series as well as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - is a minority stakeholder in Bournemouth, having joined the investment of Black Knight Football Club consortium, which is fronted by Cherries chairman Bill Foley, owner of the Vegas Golden Knights National Hockey League team.
