Dean Court has three permanent stands and an empty end (see right)

Bournemouth chief executive Alastair Saverimutto says the club are set to make a major announcement about development work at Dean Court.

The Cherries are set to unveil plans which could include housing and a hotel on land around the club's stadium.

Saverimutto told BBC Radio Solent: "I'm working very closely with the powers that be in the town, and these are exciting times for the club."

Dean Court was redeveloped into an all-seater stadium in 2001.

However, financial pressures meant that only three permanent stands were built - although a temporary stand was in place at the empty fourth end between September 2005 and the end of the 2007/08 season.

The stadium was sold to London-based property company Structadene in December 2005, and leased back by the club.
