Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola has sparked debate after allegedly swearing during a post-match television interview, according to The Sun.

The incident occurred during Iraola's interview following Bournemouth's 2-2 draw with Newcastle on TNT Sports.

Viewers believe the Bournemouth manager used a crude term during his live broadcast remarks on TNT Sports, appearing to reference a colloquial word for buttocks.

Fans claim Iraola said: "We have to show it, we have to talk about it. And we have to, in Germany we would say, we have to put a finger in the wound."

Iraola smiled knowingly, seemingly aware of how his words might have been interpreted. The interview sparked heated debate on social media, with one supporter commenting: "He knew exactly what he said," while another replied: "That's brilliant."

Iraola appeared to be referencing "Wunde," the German word for "wound," used as an idiom to highlight a sensitive but important issue when criticizing something.

Bournemouth had squandered a lead at St. James' Park, with Mateo Kovacic opening the scoring before Sandro Tonali and Fabian Schär added goals for Newcastle. Evanilson reduced the deficit for Bournemouth before Luis Sinisterra equalized late on.

Bournemouth remain unbeaten after two matches this season, drawing with Newcastle after opening their campaign with a draw against Everton. Iraola, formerly of Real Sociedad, was appointed Bournemouth manager before the 2024-25 season, replacing Gary O'Neil.
