Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola is leaving the Premier League club at the end of the season after failing to agree on a new contract.

"I feel this is the right moment for me to step away, but I will always carry fantastic memories of this club," Iraola said in a statement on the club website on Tuesday.

Under Iraola's leadership, Bournemouth improved three places in the table to 12th and received a new contract to 2026. They were then ninth with a club-record points total last season and are currently 11th and in the race for European competition.

Andoni has been the most successful Cherries manager in the Premier League, with the highest winning percentage and points per game through 108 games.

"Andoni has been instrumental in shaping the direction of this football club," club chairman Bill Foley said.

Fitness coach Pablo de la Torre is also leaving at the end of the season.
