The High Court has been asked to wind up the supplier of kit for Ireland's international football teams and others over unpaid debts of more than €13m.

JACC Sports Distributors Ireland supplies jerseys and sportswear for the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) which is worn by the national teams and is the firm's most valuable contract.
