Brief cameo off bench Gannon Doak had one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Newcastle United.

Impact Gannon Doak came on very late and registered one shot that failed to trouble Newcastle's goalkeeper in his limited time on the pitch. He provided fresh energy down Bournemouth's right attacking channel as the Cherries pushed to win the game after facing a comeback. Gannon Doak has now featured in two of Bournemouth's three opening Premier League matches as a substitute option for manager Marco Rose.

Two goals in two friendlies Gannon Doak has scored two goals in two friendlies as Bournemouth prepares for the 2026/27 season.

Impact Gannon Doak is back on the field following his World Cup run with Scotland, starting in two go his three appearances in their rough group stage exit. He is now getting ready for the Premier League season with Bournemouth, hoping to see a better season after he was limited to only eight appearances in the 2025/26 season due to his injuries. He is likely to slide into more of a rotational role as the Cherries move forward without Andoni Iraola, although more time could come his way after the injury to Junior Kroupi (foot).

Two shots in tough loss Gannon Doak registered two shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Wednesday's 3-0 defeat to Brazil.

Impact Gannon Doak was energetic again in attack for Scotland, but was unable to turn either of his shots or his cross into a goal involvement. At 20 years old, to have started the first and last group stage game is a great achievement for the Bournemouth winger. He wasn't involved in the only goal that Scotland scored in the tournament, but he has taken four shots in the three games. He hopes that Scotland can progress as a top third-placed team and reach the round of 32.

Three crosses off bench Friday Gannon Doak generated three crosses (zero accurate) in Friday's 1-0 defeat against Morocco.

Impact Gannon Doak, who started Scotland's opening match of the World Cup, was left on the bench Friday in favor of his club teammate Ryan Christie. He was the first sub off the bench though, replacing the injured Kiernan Tierney (strain) in the 60th minute. Though he failed to take a shot or create a chance -- after recording two of each in the opening match -- he led the team with three crosses and provided a spark to the struggling Scottish attack. With Tierney's status uncertain and Gannon Doak looking strong on the attack, he could find his way back into the starting XI Wednesday versus Brazil.

Productive in World Cup win Gannon Doak recorded two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-0 win over Haiti.

Impact Gannon Doak was incredibly busy in the first half against Haiti and was crucially involved in the only goal of the game. It was one of his three crosses from within the game that was cleared by the keeper into the path of John McGinn, who would score the only goal of the game. His first half shot also drew a good save from the Haiti keeper early on.

Man Utd player ratings vs Bournemouth: Humiliation for Harry Maguire as England center back's crazy lapse undoes more Bruno Fernandes brilliance

Makes bench Saturday Gannon Doak (hamstring) makes the bench for Saturday's clash against Burnley.

Impact Gannon Doak was initially expected to stay sidelined this week, but he beat the clock on a late fitness test and earns a spot on the bench for Saturday's showdown with the Clarets. It is his first appearance in the matchday squad since early November but his return shouldn't shake up the Cherries' starting XI going forward as he has largely been a depth piece this season, making four Premier League appearances and chipping in with one assist.

Impact Gannon Doak is closing in on a return from the hamstring injury that has kept him out since early November, as the forward was back in team training this week. That said, Saturday's clash against the Clarets is coming too soon for him. Once fully fit, Doak will look to work his way back into the rotation, though he is likely to resume a bench role for the Cherries.

Impact Gannon Doak is set to miss time on the sidelines after suffering a bad hamstring injury while on international duty with Scotland. The forward might have to undergo a surgery to treat the injury which could sideline him for some months. That said, his absence won't impact the starting XI of the Cherries since he has only been a bench option this season.

Stretchered off Gannon Doak was stretchered off during the first half of Wednesday's clash with Denmark.

Impact Gannon Doak got the start and assisted during the clash with Denmark, but had to be stretchered off shortly after. It's an awful turn for the forward, who has struggled for any sort of playing time with Bournemouth. He's a heavy doubt for Saturday's clash with West Ham, though he was unlikely to play either way.

Delivers assist from bench appearance Gannon Doak assisted once to go with one cross (not accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 3-1 win against Fulham.

Impact Gannon-Doak played a pivotal role Friday as a substitute after 78 minutes for Marcos Senesi. Despite making only seven touches, he provided the assist for Antoine Semenyo's stoppage-time goal that sealed the win. His contribution came during a fast break, showcasing his ability to impact the game positively in limited minutes. Since joining Bournemouth from Liverpool in the summer, Gannon-Doak has made two appearances, both as a substitute, totaling 80 minutes on the pitch. His performance against Fulham highlights his potential to influence matches, even from the bench.

Debuts in Carabao Cup Gannon Doak played the first half of Tuesday's Carabao Cup clash with Brentford.

Impact Gannon Doak made his debut after joining Bournemouth, playing the first half during Tuesday's clash. He didn't have a great match, coming off at halftime with Bournemouth down. Gannon Doak will likely be a rotation option, at least at first, though he should have a valuable role off the bench to try and run at tired defenses with his excellent pace.

Bournemouth news: What to expect from Ben Doak Bournemouth news: What to expect from Ben Doak

AUGUST 20, 2025 • BBC.CO.UK

Why did Liverpool winger Ben Doak change his name after Bournemouth transfer? Reason revealed Former Liverpool star Ben Doak has completed a move to Bournemouth on a permanent basis, and has changed his name at the same time.

AUGUST 19, 2025 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM

Sent to Bournemouth Doak has completed a transfer to Bournemouth from Liverpool, according to his former club.

Impact Doak is seeing his exit from Liverpool this offseason but will remain in the Premier League, heading to Bournemouth to join the Cherries. The 19-year-old has only made 10 first-team appearances with Liverpool, last playing on loan with Middlesbrough, and seemingly with no role in Liverpool. He will now look to gain more minutes with his new club, especially with the exit of Dango Ouattara to Brentford, competing with Evanilson, David Brooks and Luis Sinisterra for time.

AUGUST 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Back from loan spell Doak recorded three goals and seven assists across 24 appearances (21 starts) for Middlesbrough in the 2024/25 while on loan from Liverpool.

Impact Doak was limited to only 24 appearances for Boro in 2024/25, but he was productive and showed he can handle the rigors of the Championship with ease. The Scottish winger could leave Liverpool this summer, either on a loan deal or as part of a bigger transfer. However, in the case he stays at Anfield as part of the squad for the 2025/26 campaign, he wouldn't be expected to see many minutes in a loaded attacking line that already features Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah, among others.

Appears in pre-season friendly Doak (knee) appeared for 45 minutes in Friday's 1-0 friendly win against Preston North End.

Impact Doak had to skip out on Euro 2024 with Scotland due to a knee injury that required surgery he had picked up in Dec. 2023. However, he now appears to be set for the beginning of the 2024/25 Premier League campaign, as he was involved in the first half of Friday's friendly. This is great news for the player, as he will hope to be on the opening day squad, although he is likely to see minor time this season, stuck behind multiple world-class forwards.

Impact It's a tough break for Doak, who suffered the injury in a rare start last week, the final group match of Europa League. Most of his minutes this season have come in Europa League and this likely means he won't get much of a chance for minutes in league play. Given the depth of Liverpool's attack, Doak is far down the pecking order.
