Bournemouth is moving swiftly to find a replacement for manager Andoni Iraola, with Marco Rose emerging as the top contender for the position. Rose, who was let go by RB Leipzig in March 2025, is available and has the necessary experience in the Champions League.
Kieran McKenna, the manager of Ipswich, is also on the shortlist, although his current involvement in a promotion push might complicate a quick appointment. The club aims to finalize the new manager's appointment within the next two weeks to begin planning for the upcoming season, which may include European competition.
