Andoni Iraola has confirmed that he will leave AFC Bournemouth at the end of the 2025/26 season after deciding not to renew his contract.

The Spaniard has already communicated his decision to the club and players, which has brought clarity to months of speculation surrounding his future. The departure comes after negotiations between Iraola and Bournemouth failed to result in a new agreement.

Despite the club’s desire to extend his stay, both parties will now go their separate ways once his current deal expires this summer. Iraola will leave Bournemouth etching his name into history as he transformed them into a competitive Premier League side.

What did Iraola say about his exit at Bournemouth?

“It has been an honour to manage AFC Bournemouth and I am proud of what we have achieved together. I’m thankful to the players and staff that I’ve worked with, as well as Bill, who have all made my time here so special. As for the fans, you have continued to show your fantastic support to myself and the team, and for that I will always be grateful. I feel this is the right moment for me to step away, but I will always carry fantastic memories of this club.”

The club achieved a record points tally and matched their highest-ever league finish, while also earning praise for their intense, attacking style of play.

What is next for Iraola?

Iraola has been attracting interest from several clubs, including a possible return to Athletic Bilbao, while Bournemouth are expected to begin the search for a new manager ahead of the upcoming season.
