As a Serbian international, Petrovic has made 23 appearances for Chelsea in the Premier League, keeping five clean sheets. However, he has been deemed surplus to requirements by Chelsea's manager, who is looking to give younger players more playing time.

In an interview with the club, Petrovic expressed his excitement about joining Bournemouth. He believes that the club has great potential and that he can grow as a player with their support. He aims to help the team achieve success and improve with every game.

According to Bournemouth's President of Football Operations, Tiago Pinto, Petrovic is a valuable addition to the team. Pinto believes that Petrovic's impressive qualities and experience make him an ideal fit for the club's project. He looks forward to working with Petrovic and is excited about the new season.

The signing of Petrovic is seen as a smart move by Bournemouth, who have been searching for a talented goalkeeper to invest in. With Petrovic on board, the team is expected to be more competitive in the upcoming season.
