Bournemouth’s owner, Bill Foley, is planning contract talks with Andoni Iraola next week and there is growing confidence at the club that the in‑demand head coach can be persuaded to stay.
The Spaniard’s contract expires at the end of next season and Foley wants him to sign a longer deal, despite interest from clubs such as Tottenham. Foley is due to fly to Bournemouth after Easter and meet Iraola to discuss the future, with a new contract on offer.
