According to reports in the English press, the Reds want to bring the successful Spanish coach to lead the team. The club is expected to initiate official contacts with Bournemouth in the coming days.
MADE HISTORY WITH BOURNEMOUTH

Finishing the Premier League in 6th place, Bournemouth earned the right to participate in the UEFA Europa League. Thus, the English club achieved the feat of competing in European competitions for the first time in its 127-year history.
BECAME ONE OF THE MOST TALKED-ABOUT MANAGERS OF THE SEASON
It was stated that Iraola, who became one of the most prominent managers of the season in England with his performance, is the top choice of Liverpool's management. A decision regarding the successful coach's future is expected to be clarified soon.
