Pugh opts for Bournemouth

Last updated : 14 June 2010 By Tony Scholes
Pugh joined Hereford last summer from Shrewsbury on a one year deal, this after enjoying a successful loan with them during the 2008/09 season.

He had a good season with Hereford, netting 13 goals in 46 appearances, and then manager Graham Turner had no hesitation in offering him a new deal although Turner admitted at the time that he thought the player would move on.

Hereford then offered him an improved two year deal, but this too was rejected and the club then confirmed that he would move on.

He's done that and signed for Bournemouth but there will be a fee involved because Pugh is aged just 23. That fee will have to be settled by a tribunal after his new club's offer was rejected by Hereford.
