Former Tipperary manager Eamon O’Shea linked with Galway move

Former Tipperary manager Eamon O’Shea could be set for a sensational return to top-level inter-county coaching with Galway.

It is understood O’Shea, who managed Tipperary from 2013 until stepping aside following the All-Ireland semi-final defeat to Galway in August, has been lined up by prospective new Tribes boss Michael Donoghue, if he is successful in his bid for the post vacated by Anthony Cunningham.

Galway sources have also indicated Josie Harte, the former Galway minor hurling manager, is also on Donoghue’s ticket. O’Shea cited travel commitments as one of the biggest problems he had to endure during his time with Tipp but linking up with Galway, where he is based, would not be an issue in this regard.
