Jordon Ibe is fine after theft of £25,000 watch, claims Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe

Bournemouth winger Jordon Ibe has suffered no ill-effects from being robbed at knifepoint recently, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Thieves rammed Ibe's car in Surrey Quays, south east London, before threatening him with a knife and stealing a £25,000watch from the former Liverpool winger.

Ibe missed Bournemouth's win against Stoke City last Saturday through illness, but Howe confirmed he would be available for the visit of Arsenal at the weekend.
