Bournemouth have appointed Andoni Iraola as their new manager, hours after sacking Gary O’Neil.

The 40-year old has spent the past three seasons at Rayo Vallecano, getting them promoted in his first season there.

AFC Bournemouth owner and chairman Bill Foley said: "We're so excited to welcome Andoni to the club," 

"With his contract in Spain coming to an end this summer we wanted to act quickly."

"He was highly sought after by other clubs across the continent, and his style of play has been an important factor in making this decision.

His achievements in Spain have certainly been very impressive, and we're confident that he is the right man to lead our next chapter."
