Bournemouth owner Bill Foley is scheduled to fly to England this week, with the club intending to open formal talks with boss Andoni Iraola over a new contract.
Sources close to the club have indicated that, barring a last-minute change, American businessman Foley will arrive in time to attend Saturday's Premier League match against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Foley will then stay in the UK to officially open Bournemouth's new state-of-the-art training facility.
But also on Foley's itinerary will be discussions with manager Iraola, whose existing deal expires at the end of next season.
