## Caption

Not gonna lie… I think Jermain Defoe is onto something here 😮‍💨 He was full of praise for 19-year-old Bournemouth baller Rayan following his performances since joining in January, comparing him to Gareth Bale who went on to play for Real Madrid after leaving Tottenham… “I’m going to make a big statement here. He reminds me of Gareth Bale to be honest, he plays so effortlessly.” Bournemouth are unbeaten in 16 GAMES since he came in and that also coincided with losing Antoine Semenyo. He’s bridged that gap and already has the whole of the football world watching on in awe. Some huge performances so far and he’s only going to get better. 🤝🏽💫 #GarethBale #Rayan #Football #Soccer #PremierLeague
