Emma Byrne and Colin Healy join interim Ireland coaching team for Nations League matches

Healy stepped down as Cork City manager in May, having led his hometown club back to the Premier Division last season. The 43-year-old won 13 senior caps for Ireland in a 19-season career before moving into coaching, where he previously assisted the Ireland men’s under-19s.

Regardless of how Ireland goes against Northern Ireland in the first ever women’s international at the Aviva Stadium on September 23rd or in Budapest three days later, Gleeson is not expected to take the head coaching job on a permanent basis. FAI director of football Marc Canham has begun the recruitment process to find a replacement for Pauw, after the board of directors voted not to extend the Dutch coach’s contract in August.
