JUSTIN KLUIVERT was always going to have big football boots to fill.

- BY RYAN TAYLOR

JUSTIN TIME

But now, inspired by his red-hot Bournemouth form, the son of Holland great Patrick is forging his own legacy as one of the Premier League's most feared attackers.

The 25-year-old, hailed as the perfect No.10 by former Arsenal star Marc Overmars as a kid, has notched up 13 goals and seven assists in all competitions this season.

Ever-improving Kluivert is optimistic all good things come in threes following the birth of his first child and after earning two successive starts for Holland during the international break against Spain.

Now, he wants to fire European-chasing Bournemouth into the FA Cup semi-finals with victory over Manchester City at the Vitality Stadium today.

At just 17, the ambitious Cherries hotshot was adamant his pathway to the summit of the game was mapped out for him, following his exciting senior breakthrough at Ajax.

However, following frustrating spells in Italy, Germany, France and Spain with Roma, RB Leipzig, Nice and Valencia, respectively, the pressure of carrying the prestigious family name no longer weighs heavily for Kluivert at Bournemouth.
