Despite growing interest from London clubs, Iraola has remained focused on Bournemouth’s season. Speaking about renewed interest from Crystal Palace, the Spaniard said: "I’m in no rush. I will not talk about my future. I’m fully focused on trying to finish this season with a reward, something tangible for the players and supporters."
Palace had already approached Iraola twice in their search for a successor to Oliver Glasner. However, the Bournemouth boss rejected those attempts, though the club have not entirely abandoned hope of persuading him to move to Selhurst Park.
