Lewis Cook is a 21-year-old central midfielder who plays for Bournemouth in the Premier League. He has also featured for England's national team, having made just a single appearance since his debut in March 2018.

Cook began his career with Leeds, and was promoted to their first team from the U18 squad in the summer of 2014. Two years later, he would make the switch to Bournemouth for around £6.5m, favouring Premier League football instead.

Cook has since become an integral part of Bournemouth's midfield and his 29 appearances for the Cherries last season confirmed that. Whilst he might not yet be performing as well for the national team, he has consolidated himself in the Premier League at the age of 21, which is no mean feat.
