Donegal GAA have “reluctantly” accepted the resignation of academy head coach and four-time All-Star defender Karl Lacey “having exhausted all avenues of mediation”.

In an email to clubs on Tuesday on behalf of Donegal’s management committee, county secretary Declan Martin explained their differences with 2012 All-Ireland SFC winner Lacey could not be mended.
