Micheál Donoghue set to remain at Galway helm until 2021

Galway hurling manager Micheál Donoghue has been given a two-year contract extension and is set to lead the Tribesmen in 2020 as they bid to bounce back from their earliest championship exit in over half a century.

Donoghue, who took charge in late 2015 after a player revolt ended Anthony Cunningham’s reign, was given an extra season late last year and now it has emerged that this term was extended just before the start of the championship this summer.
