Warriors defender Jordan Zemura says his main target at the moment is to see Bournemouth survive relegation from the Premier League despite the speculation surrounding his own future on the south coast.

Zemura is currently into the last three months of his contract at Bournemouth despite having been one of the club’s leading lights in the Premier League this season.

Reports earlier in the season revealed that the gifted left-back is one of the lowest paid players in the Premier League.

The 23-year-old Zimbabwe international’s contractual situation has led to fears amongst the club’s fans that he could be leaving the club when his contract expires at the end of the season.

Zemura’s housemate and fellow starlet Jaidon Anthony recently signed a new deal, putting further pressure on both Bournemouth and Zemura to finalise terms.

Although the player remains hopeful that a solution would soon be found, he says his immediate focus remains on doing well for the club on the football pitch.

Zemura told the Bournemouth Daily Echo on Thursday: “Firstly, congratulations to Jaidon, buzzing for him. Hopefully, something can get sorted.”

Asked if he was focusing on his football, Zemura replied: “Yeah, definitely.”
