Bournemouth have no intention of moving as Tottenham wants.
England's The Athletic said on the 27th (Korea time) that "Nze Postecoglou's future at Tottenham is in serious uncertainty" and that Postecoglou may be replaced, adding that "Whatever option Tottenham chooses, it is his experience with the English Premier League that can guarantee his ability when he takes over as a new coach."
Tottenham's top target was Bournemouth coach Andoni Iraola, who has already been revealed several times by local media. Iraola is a young leader from Spain. After completing his career, he began his leadership career in 2018. After successfully leading Rayo Bayecano from 2020, he took the helm of Bournemouth in 2023.
In the early days of his appointment, he was rapidly shaken and was on the verge of being replaced, but Iraola escaped the crisis and led Bournemouth to its best performance ever. He continues to lead Bournemouth very successfully this season and is very well-received for establishing attractive attacking football. Developing young players. He played offensive soccer and his managerial career came from Spain to England, which is said to be the second Mauricio Pochettino coach.
Bournemouth and Iraola have one year left on their contract. Currently, Iraola's contract has a buyout clause of 10 million euros (about 16 billion won), which can be easily taken from other clubs. As Tottenham's interest has materialized, the wind is blowing for the change of the head coach. However, it is understood that Bournemouth have no intention of giving up manager Iraola easily.
The British Telegraph reported on Friday that "Bonnemouth have a very clear plan for the type of player they want and the football they are keen to keep under Ola. Now the club's concern is to leave manager Iraola in the interest of Tottenham, one of the potential courters," he reported.
"Bonmouth doesn't want to think about losing Iraola. With one year remaining on his contract after this season, the club are trying to convince him to sign a new contract. There is hope and small optimism that Iraola will sign a new contract. This is because Bournemouth has formed a team that fits the manager's style. "Iraola is an important player in Bournemouth's plans and they want him to believe that the job is not done yet. We are doing everything we can to persuade him."
In fact, Bournemouth are already moving to renew the coach's contract. Bournemouth owner Bill Polly said on Talk Sports in the UK on the 12th that "Tiago Pinto, the team's director, is in talks with the agent. I also had a conversation with Iraola,' he had already mentioned that Bournemouth was working to renew his contract.
If Iraola signs the renewal, Tottenham will have to use a different scenario. Fulham coach Marco Silva and Brentford coach Thomas Frank are considered Plan B.
