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'Neil.
The negotiations with Bielsa were positive and he was open to the idea of working on the new-look project on the south coast.
Foley, who owns National Hockey League side Vegas Golden Knights, has not been officially confirmed as the new owner, however Sky Sports News understands it is only a matter of time before the Premier League rubberstamps the £120m takeover.
Members of the board have been in Las Vegas this week as they thrash out plans for the future of the club.
Bournemouth have been looking for a permanent successor to Scott Parker after he was sacked in August following the 9-0 defeat at Liverpool.
The Cherries went six games unbeaten under temporary boss O'Neil but have suffered four consecutive league defeats to sit 17th in the Premier League, one point above the relegation zone.
