The future of Scott Parker at Burnley is currently under discussion, with no final decision yet made regarding his position. According to reports from journalist Ben Jacobs, a mutual parting of ways remains a possible outcome as the club assesses its direction ahead of the new campaign.

Burnley are understood to be weighing up their options should a managerial change be required, with internal discussions ongoing.

Among the names being appreciated within the club is former Burnley assistant coach and current Wales manager Craig Bellamy, whose previous connection to the club and growing managerial reputation have placed him on the radar.

Former England captain Steven Gerrard is also believed to be open to a return to management, with a role in the Championship considered an attractive option. Gerrard is no longer in a managerial role at Al-Ettifaq, instead serving in a consultancy capacity, and is not restricted from taking up a position in the UK.

Elsewhere, AFC Bournemouth endured a difficult season under Parker, with relegation to the Championship confirmed with four matches remaining. The team recorded just four wins in 34 league games, marking a disappointing campaign that has added scrutiny to Parker’s recent managerial record.

Burnley’s final decision is still pending, but the coming days could prove decisive as the club considers its next steps.
