"Once I heard the club wanted to give me a new deal, it was a pretty easy decision," the 27-year-old told the club's website. (www.afcb.co.uk)

"The team has been successful over the last few years and you want to be part of somewhere that is continually progressing.

"I just want to improve all the time and it's nice to be part of a squad who are all trying to do that, too."

Manager Eddie Howe said the long-serving midfielder had been integral to the meteoric rise of the club.

"Harry has been such an important player for us over a long period of time," Howe said. "He is a real winner and has been at the heart of most of the good things that have happened on the pitch."

Bournemouth, who finished ninth in their second Premier League campaign, face Portugal's Estoril Praia in their first pre-season match on Saturday.
