McGuinness to stay on as Donegal senior boss

JIM McGuinness will remain at the helm of Donegal’s senior footballers in 2027 after being reappointed on Monday night.

McGuinness returned to intercounty management in 2023 on an initial three-year term, with an option to extend his tenure for a fourth season.

That option has now been taken up, with the Donegal County Board confirming that McGuinness will lead the footballers for another campaign.

In a statement following Monday night’s County Committee meeting, CLG Dhún na nGall said: “Following a meeting of the County Committee, CLG Dhún na nGall confirm the appointment of Michael McCann as senior hurling manager for a two-year term and Jim McGuinness as senior football manager for a one-year term.”
