Bournemouth midfielder David Brooks hopes to make his comeback in the near future after signing a long-term contract extension with the Premier League club.
The 25-year-old missed the majority of last season after he was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkin lymphoma in October.
But the Wales international, a member of Rob Page s squad at Euro 2020 last year, was given the all-clear in May and returned to a modified training programme.
Brooks is eager to resume his career soon after putting pen to paper on a deal until at least June 2026.
We re delighted to confirm that has signed a new deal with the club

I am so pleased to have signed this deal and am looking forward to the next few years with this great club, he told the club s website.
Of course, the last year has been extremely difficult for myself, my family and friends but I m now in a position to resume my career, and getting this deal over the line is the icing on the cake.
I am working hard alongside the excellent coaching team at Bournemouth and am hoping to be back on the pitch soon.
In the meantime, I ll be supporting the lads every step of the way.
