Andoni Iraola is expected to leave AFC Bournemouth, and this could start a wave of managerial changes across the Premier League.
Iraola has impressed since joining Bournemouth in 2023 after replacing Gary O'Neil. His work helped improve the team, but his possible departure is now a major concern for the club.
He is strongly linked with a return to Athletic Club, where he spent most of his playing career. If he leaves, it will add more uncertainty to an already busy managerial market.
Many Premier League clubs are now thinking about changes ahead of the next season.
Crystal Palace are expected to appoint a new manager, with Oliver Glasner likely to leave at the end of the season. Iraola was one of their main targets.
If Iraola moves to Spain, Palace may look at Thomas Frank, who previously managed Tottenham Hotspur.
Edin Terzic is also linked with a possible return to Athletic Club after his time at Borussia Dortmund.
At Manchester City, there is still no clear decision about the future of Pep Guardiola, with talks expected after the season ends.
Liverpool manager Arne Slot is under pressure after a poor season following last year’s success. Xabi Alonso is being discussed as a possible replacement.
At Manchester United, Michael Carrick has done well as caretaker manager, but the club has not decided his future yet. Julian Nagelsmann is also a possible option if he becomes available.
At Chelsea, Liam Rosenior is under pressure after a run of bad results, although the club is still backing him.
Eddie Howe is also facing pressure at Newcastle United despite winning a trophy last season.
With so many clubs uncertain, this summer could see one of the biggest waves of managerial changes in Premier League history.
