Bournemouth hold Bielsa talks over vacant managerial role

Bournemouth  have held talks with former Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa over their vacant managerial role.

Bielsa has been out of work since being sacked by Leeds in February and has been high on Bournemouth's list should incoming owner Bill Foley decide not to hand the job to interim boss Gary O'Neill.

Talks with Bielsa had been positive and he was open to the idea of working on the new-look project on the south coast.

Bournemouth sit 17th in the Premier League, one point above the relegation zone after four consecutive league defeats.
