"Gary's achievements last season are something for which I will always be grateful. He has a long career ahead of him as a head coach or manager, but we believe it is in the best interests of our football club to have a change of coach at this time. I would like to formally thank Gary and wish him all the best for the future," said Bill Foley, the club's owner.

As a reminder, at the end of last season, Bournemouth retained their Premier League registration.
