13 signings you’d forgotten were made by Premier League clubs in the summer

Don’t worry, you’d be forgiven for it...

13. Nathan Ake (Chelsea to Bournemouth, loan)

Ake racked up 24 Premier League appearances during an excellent loan spell at Watford last season and probably thought a similar temporary move to Bournemouth would provide much the same this time around.

Perhaps he should have realised it was always going to be a tough ask to play regularly, though: Charlie Daniels was among the best full-backs in the division last season and hasn’t missed a game for the Cherries yet this term. Ake hasn’t featured in the Premier League since August 27, playing only 13 top-flight minutes in total.
