Loaned to Fiorentina
Jimenez has been loaned to Fiorentina from Bournemouth, according to Serie A.
Analysis: Jimenez is set for a season out from Bournemouth, as the defender will head to Fiorentina on a season-long loan. He would hold a starting role for much of last season until the club launched an investigation into him following some posts circulating online, recording one goal in 31 appearances (26 starts). With the investigation till pending, it leaves some questions on whether he will be an option for the entire season. He will now compete with Dodo for time at right-back, so starting time is not guaranteed with his new club, potentially serving in more of a rotational role.
Left out of squad
Jimenez (not injury related) has been omitted from the squad for Saturday's clash against Fulham while the club investigates posts circulating on social media involving the right-back, according to the club.
Analysis: Jimenez won't be an option for the time being, as Bournemouth confirmed they are aware of the seriousness of the matter and that an investigation is currently underway, with the club declining to make any further comment at this time. Adam Smith is expected to start at right-back in his place against Fulham, with no indication yet on when Jimenez may return to the matchday squad pending the outcome of the investigation.
