Unal arr♑ived on loan from Getafe in January and made 16 Premier League appearances throughout the second half of 2023-24.

While he largely served as a deputy to star striker Dominic Solanke, Unal did manage two goals as Bournemouth finished 12th, just one po𒁃int adrift of a top-half fi൩nish.

Unal's first Pre꧋mier League goal was a stoppage-time equaliser in a 2-2 draw with Sheffield Unite♔d in March, while he was also on target in a 3-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion in late April. 

Bournemouth set a new top-flight club record by earning 48 points in their first season under Andoni Iraola🐓, enjoying a dramatic up😼turn after failing to win any of the Spaniard's first nine league games at the helm.

Unal – who missed the first half of 2023-24 wi🍷th a cruciate ligament tear – told the Cherries' website: "I enjoyed testing myself in the Premier League while regaining my fitness. I am really excited for the years ahead."
