Loan move for Begovic

AFC Bournemouth goalkeeper Asmir Begovic has joined Azerbaijan Premier League leaders Qarabag on loan.

The 32-year-old completed his move ahead of the closing of the European transfer deadline and will remain with Qarabag until January.

Based in Baku, Qarabag have won the Azerbaijan Premier League for the past six years and currently top the table after winning their first three games.

They have also qualified for the group stage of the Europa League and will meet Sevilla, APOEL and Dudelange.

Bosnia and Herzegovina international Begovic has made 62 appearances for the Cherries in the Premier League since signing from Chelsea in the summer of 2017.

Begovic has not featured this season with Aaron Ramsdale playing all four games in the top flight and Mark Travers starting the Carabao Cup second-round clash against Forest Green Rovers.
