Bournemouth centre-back Steve Cook has been rewarded with a new four-year deal after an impressive campaign in which he helped the club finish ninth in the Premier League.
Cook, 26, had been linked with a summer move, with reports of interest from clubs including Everton, but he has committed himself to the club he joined from Brighton almost six years ago.
