FORMER All-Ireland winning Donegal manager Jim McGuinness has hinted there may be a role for him with Dundalk FC in the League of Ireland.

Speaking at a launch for the SKY Sports GAA Championship coverage, the Glenties man, who was sacked as coach by Charlotte Independence in June 2019 after winning one game out of 14, has been unattached since, but Dundalk FC Sporting Director Jim Magilton revealed his admiration for McGuinness as a coach and that the pair have had talks.
