Terry has met Eddie Howe recently to discuss the possibility of joining the South Coast club.
The former England defender could expect a 12-month deal in Dorset, with an option to extend his contract. The report adds that Terry is tempted by the fact that he could stay at his Surrey home.

The news will come as a big blow to West Bromwich Albion, who were also in the running for Terry’s signature.
According to reports from The Telegraph, the Baggies were considering a move for the veteran Premier League winner.
West Brom’s playing style may have suited Terry better, but it seems he is heading towards Bournemouth instead.
