"Definitely [closer to a decision]. It is something we will decide sooner rather than later, but there is no news. When there is something to say, we will say it. I have one thing clear, the club and me are very open. We talk a lot. I have a great relationship with [technical director] Simon Francis and [president of football operations] Tiago [Pinto]. Everything is fine between us."
"After a slow start, Iraola led the club to a 12th-placed finish and their highest points total (48) in the Premier League in his first campaign. The Cherries improved again in the Spaniard's second season, finishing ninth with 56 points. With nine games of the 2025-26 campaign remaining, they sit ninth in the league with 40 points."
Andoni Iraola, Bournemouth's 43-year-old Spanish manager, is working toward resolving his contract situation, which expires at the end of the current season. Since joining in June 2023, Iraola has achieved club-record Premier League points totals in both seasons, guiding the Cherries to 48 points in his first campaign and 56 points in his second. Currently, Bournemouth sits ninth with 40 points from nine remaining games. Iraola maintains strong relationships with club leadership and confirms ongoing discussions about his future. Despite selling over £250 million in players across recent transfer windows, including key defenders and attackers, Bournemouth has maintained competitive performance under his management.
