Former Italy keeper Zenga believes he’s right man for Ireland

Former Italian goalkeeper Walter Zenga has put himself forward as a surprise candidate for the job of Irish manager.

While the 53-year-old acknowledges he would be considered an outsider, he believes he has the skills and approach that Ireland require.

Zenga famously played against Ireland in the 1990 World Cup quarter-final, but feels his modern outlook on international management would fully suit the FAI.
