forever<\/strong> has done a remarkable job at Bournemouth, who boosted their chances of securing Champions League qualification by beating Fulham 1-0 on Saturday afternoon.<\/p>\n However, Iraola will not be managing Bournemouth next season because his contract is due to expire next month and it has already emerged that he will leave the club at the end of this campaign.<\/p>\n And Iraola is not short of options for his next move, with Man Utd<\/strong>Chelsea and Crystal Palace among those linked with him.<\/p>\n Earlier this week, it was prematurely reported that Iraola is \u2018close to an agreement\u2019 with Crystal Palace<\/strong>and he will surely opt for a better move than this sideways step for his next managerial job.<\/p>\n READ: Man Utd hit the beach in Sunderland as \u00a391m duo head to the exit<\/strong><\/p>\n And a new report from Caught Offside<\/em> claims Iraola is \u2018favouring\u2019 Man Utd and he has \u2018concerns\u2019 with the \u2018Chelsea project\u2019, while he \u2018has not decided\u2019 on a move to Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n A move to Man Utd currently \u2018looks increasingly unlikely\u2019 after interim boss Michael Carrick sealed Champions League qualification for the Premier League side.<\/p>\n However, Iraola could still join Man Utd on one condition.<\/p>\n The report explains: \u2018However, a lot can change very quickly, and if, for instance, United get cold feet about hiring Carrick permanently, I sense that Iraola would be high up on their list and also willing to speak with the Red Devils.\u2019<\/p>\n READ MORE: Carrick admits Man Utd forward was \u2018isolated\u2019 vs Sunderland as \u2018so weak\u2019 star \u2018not a United player\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n And talkSPORT pundit Jason Cundy \u2018fears\u2019 Man Utd are \u2018sleepwalking\u2019 into a \u2018worrying scenario\u2019 with Carrick, who \u2018faces a similar fate\u2019 to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.<\/p>\n \u201cI can see both sides (Man Utd appointing Carrick), and I am so torn on this,\u201d Cundy said on talkSPORT after United\u2019s 0-0 draw against Sunderland.<\/p>\n \u201cThe reason I\u2019m torn on this is, has Carrick come into Man United and done a good job?
