They will play in the Europa League. Christie played 177 matches in all competitions, including 124 in the Premier League. He has scored 10 goals and 17 assists so far. "FC Bournemouth say we are delighted to announce that Ryan Christie has signed a new contract with us." Christie played 26 matches in the 2025–26 season, scoring 2 goals. Christie told the club's website: "It's a fantastic feeling. I'm really happy. It's been an incredible year for the club, especially with the end of the season, qualifying for Europe. I'm already looking forward to next season. The World Cup is coming up, so it was a perfect time for me to secure a new contract, now I can fully focus on next season. To be honest, I want it to start already.
