• Football Insider says Bournemouth are working behind the scenes to convince Iraola to commit, with confidence he wants to stay despite no agreement yet.
• Iraola’s current deal runs until next summer, creating a time-sensitive incentive for Bournemouth to lock in an extension.
• Manchester United are monitoring Iraola as pressure on Ruben Amorim’s position is discussed in reports, though Football Insider says the club is currently sticking with Amorim.
• Iraola has stated he is very happy at Bournemouth, and his record of 1.46 points per game underscores why larger clubs are being linked.
