Bournemouth news: BBC Sport transfer window Q&A

BBC Sport’s chief football news reporter Simon Stone has been taking your questions.

Anonymous asked: With AFC Bournemouth having had such a good season we will obviously be losing a few players. What will really hurt is if we lose Iraola. Is there any gossip around him going anywhere? (The chatter about a move to Tottenham seems to have abated a bit!)

Simon answered: The latest I heard on this was that Iraola is keen to stay and continue the work he has been doing at the Vitality. I guess the problem is last season was really good – but for extended periods, it promised much more, and Bournemouth are in the cycle where after a campaign like they had, they are at risk of being picked off by bigger, richer clubs. Dean Huijsen has gone, everyone expects Milos Kerkez to go and no-one really knows where it will end.

The key, clearly, is for Bournemouth to spend the money wisely. And that is not totally down to Iraola.
