Ciarán Meenagh has been ratified as the new Derry senior football team manager.
Derry GAA released a statement on Thursday evening confirming that Meenagh will replace Paddy Tally.
The highly regarded Chrissy McKaigue will be part of Meenagh's backroom team.
"Following Thursday night’s meeting of Coiste Chontae Dhoire, Derry GAA is pleased to announce the appointment of Ciarán Meenagh as senior football manager," the statement said.
"Ciarán Meenagh first joined the Derry senior football management team in late 2018 and served for five seasons as a coach and later as manager – a period that included promotion from Division Four to Division One and back-to-back Ulster Senior Football titles."
