No talks on Vera Pauw contract extension

The Ireland manager's deal is due to conclude after the World Cup

NO TALKS: Republic of Ireland manager Vera Pauw. 

Vera Pauw could enter the final weeks of her contract at the summer World Cup after the FAI admitted talks on an extension have been parked.

The Dutchwoman revealed in 2019 she was considering retirement from coaching until then FAI chief Noel Mooney convinced her to fill the void left by Colin Bell’s abrupt exit.
