Bournemouth expected at least one security guard sold this summer but losing three has been a shock, according to sources within the club.
Every move has been hard to deny, though, with such a huge fee from three major clubs in the world.
But long -term talks with PSG have shown Bournemouth have been making contracts on their terms, as well as accepting each player has wanted to take the next step in their work.
Cherries, who more than three times a £ 12.8m paid to sign Huijsen from Juventus six months earlier, did not expect his 50m release passage to be seen as worth the money and suit within a year.
Real Madrid won the race but Huijsen attracted many other interests – as well as from Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea – after a good season at the Vitity Stadium.
Diakite fills one of the gaps in the middle of the back and the Frenchman of £ 14.4m Adrien Truffert has been signed to fill the Kerkez hole – and the greatest guard is sought.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Djrodje Petrovic has replaced Kepa Arrizabalaga – who decided to join Arsenal from Chelsea instead of Bournemouth – and they also signed young Eli Junior Kroupi in February.
Andoni Irala also wants the striker to increase the competition for Evanilson, given Enes UNAL to remain out that he has suffered a serious knee injury last season.
