Winger Marc Pugh will leave Bournemouth at the end of his contract this summer after 312 appearances in nine seasons.

Pugh, 32, arrived from Hereford in 2010, while the Cherries were in Ligue 1, and played a key role in two winning teams in 2013 and 2015.

He was loaned in January alongside Hull, but his injury with the Tigers was cut short.

"Marc has been an incredible servant and an ideal model," said Eddie Howe, Bournemouth's boss.

"He summed up the club's career in the Football League where he is today, not only a great player on the pitch, but also a key figure."

Born in Lancashire, who began his career at Burnley and has also played for Kidderminster, Bury, Shrewsbury and Luton, will receive a special presentation before the Bournemouth home game against Tottenham on Saturday.

His 56 goals in the Cherries, in all competitions, included a hat-trick in their club's 8-0 win against Birmingham City in October 2014.
