Tottenham face Andoni Iraola competition from London rivals amid ambitious move
Tottenham Hotspur are expected to face competition from their rivals for Andoni Iraola, who has been on the North London club’s radar for a while.
While Spurs may turn to another interim head coach to guide them to Premier League safety, the North London club also have a decision to make on who to appoint permanently in the summer.
Mauricio Pochettino and Roberto De Zerbi have been mooted as the two leading contenders for the permanent role at Tottenham, but speculation linking another Premier League boss with a move to N17 refuses to go away.
According to some sources, Andoni Iraola continues to be near the top of Spurs’ wishlist, with the Spaniard’s current deal with Bournemouth set to run out this summer.
Crystal Palace are plotting a move for Tottenham target Andoni Iraola
The Telegraph are now reporting that Crystal Palace are contemplating a shock move to take Iraola to Selhurst Park this summer.
Oliver Glasner will part ways with the Eagles at the end of the season, and the Cherries boss is thought to be on the South London club’s wishlist.
Palace want to bring in the right coach to continue playing European football, and they are ready to make an ambitious move for Iraola.
However, it is revealed that the Bournemouth boss has not made a final decision yet on his future, even as his contract continues to run out.
Iraola could stay put at Bournemouth
The Telegraph do not rule out the possibility of the 43-year-old remaining at the Vitality Stadium and penning a new contract with the Premier League side.
This update comes a few weeks after TEAMtalk claimed that there is a growing belief at Bournemouth that Iraola would commit himself to the ongoing project on the South Coast.
Iraola has said that he is happy where he is and insisted that he will hold talks with the Cherries about his future at the end of the season.
