Rankine will return to Nene Park, after Rushden's poor recent run

Bournemouth loan striker Michael Rankine will return to his parent club Rushden & Diamonds next month.

Cherries boss Jimmy Quinn had asked to extend the player's loan beyond the initial month, which is due to expire on 8 November.

But Quinn told BBC Radio Solent: "Rushden are having a bit of a shake-up there, and they want to take him back."

"I'm disappointed because Michael has done well, and has really enjoyed his time with us."
