Damien Duff said he may look outside of Ireland for his next job in football. After leading Shelbourne to the League of Ireland Premier Division title in 2024, Duff made a shock departure as manager last summer midway through the season.

"I have to start probably looking outside the country because there's not a big industry here, as we know," the former Ireland international said during an appearance on Premier Sports' Champions League coverage.
