CHERRIES are today expected to complete the signing of Brentford striker Alan Connell.

Connell is set to rejoin Cherries, coming in as a straight replacement for Bristol Rovers-bound Jo Kuffour.

It is understood Cherries have agreed a deal with Brentford for the 25-year-old, who made 54 appearances for the Dorset outfit between 2002 and 2005.

He is expected to link up with Kevin Bond's squad tomorrow and also undergo a medical. Connell is likely to be in contention to start against Port Vale on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Kuffour looks set to finally complete his move to Bristol Rovers later today.
