Iraola: 'Transfer market not important to me'

"You are making it sound like I am like almost testing the club, sign very good players so I can stay,"

"And from my side, it's not like this. I think I try to help the club to sign the better players we can. And we've tried to do this in the winter market. Some players we haven't been able to sign, others yes, like in every market. And now the market is not the important thing for me. The important thing is the performances, how we build a team, how we play games, how we can continue getting points. And this is the substantial part."

Andoni Iraola is out of contract this summer and is expected to leave. He led Bournemouth to ninth place last season. Multiple first-team players have departed, including Antoine Semenyo's move to Manchester City. The club made several young signings in January, while missing out on other targets. Iraola states that transfer activity will not affect his future. He prioritizes on-field performances, team building, match play and accumulating points. He rejects the idea that signing strong players in the winter market is a tactic to secure his continuation. The focus remains constructing a competitive team and gaining results.
