Sunderland finished on the last place with only 24 points in 38 games despite of Defoe’s impressive 15 goals for them.
Defoe reportedly agreed to Bournemouth deal last month, but has been waiting for the transfer window which will open this Saturday.
The 34-year-old will move on a free deal as his Sunderland contract had a clause stating that he would be allowed to leave for free if Sunderland fail to survive in the top flight.
As per the latest reports, Defoe has agreed a deal around £65,000-a-week which is quite impressive.
Defoe will return to Bournemouth after 16 years, he netted 18 goals for them during 2000-2001 season.
The Cherries are also targeting Chelsea youngster Nathan Ake on a permanent deal, the defender spent the first half of last season on loan at Dean Court.
