Bournemouth new-boy Sammy Igoe revealed the club's passing style was the key reason he joined the Cherries ahead of the new season.The midfielder, who was released by Bristol Rovers at the end of last season, linked up with Kevin Bond's squad for the start of pre-season training and put pen-to-paper on a one-year contract - with a second year option - on Tuesday.

The 31-year-old told the club's official website: "It's fantastic down here. I've said to a few people I've wanted to play for Bournemouth for a while so I'm delighted to finally sign for the club.

"I've played against Bournmeouth a number of times and have always been impressed with their football, that's how I like to play.

"Seeing how each and every one of the lads wanted to play football that way was a major factor in deciding to join the club."
