Wayne Rooney, Harry Redknapp or Sean Dyche – who will take over at Bournemouth?

Scott Parker lasted just four games at the Cherries this season.

Bournemouth sacked Scott Parker just four games into the new Premier League season and on the back of a record-equalling 9-0 thrashing at Liverpool.

The Cherries have lost their last three fixtures with an aggregate score of 16-0, with Parker claiming the club are “ill-equipped” in the top tier after guiding them to promotion last year.

Gary O’Neil has been placed in temporary charge and here the PA news agency takes a look at some of the other contenders who could land the top job at the Vitality Stadium.
