Iraola Endorses Rose as Bournemouth's Successor

Andoni Iraola, the current manager of Bournemouth, has expressed his support for the club's decision to appoint Marco Rose as a successor. Rose, aged 49, was dismissed from his role at RB Leipzig in March 2025 and is set to manage in England for the first time.

He has a notable history in European football, having won two Austrian Bundesliga titles and the Austrian Cup with Red Bull Salzburg, as well as the German Cup and the German Super Cup with Leipzig. Bournemouth is currently experiencing a historic high, sitting eighth in the Premier League and on a 13-match unbeaten run.

They are eyeing a European qualification spot, which would mark the first time the club has reached a continental competition. The future destination of Iraola remains unclear as he navigates this transitional period for the club.
