“All the players we have on loan, they will return at the beginning of July,” Iraola told the Bournemouth Echo.

“Then in these situations, for me, I always say it, first we have to listen what they want to do.

“If they say, ‘I prefer to leave, because here I am not going to have the minutes I want’, then we have to discuss with the clubs so the money works and everyone is happy.

“They might tell me, ‘I want to stay here and fight for the minutes’. They are our players. They’ve played some minutes this season with us and I value them.”  

On Moore, he added:  “Yes, he could (stay), of course. I am very happy. I am sure he has showed he can score goals. He is a very good number nine.

“But it is very difficult, even for Enes (Unal), who signed on loan from Getafe in January (a deal which was recently made permanent). Enes is doing very well and it is difficult for me to give him more minutes because right now we have Dom Solanke.

“Dom is playing so well that he is not giving a lot of chances to the other number nines.”
