McKinley tipped to take on Glenswilly role

Ryan McKinley is being tipped to become the new boss at Glenswilly.

McKinley recently stepped down after two years as manager of his home club, Naomh Colmcille.

In a two-year stint, McKinley guided Naomh Colmcille to Donegal and Ulster SFC titles in 2017 before leading them to promotion to Division 3 this year.

McKinley’s work at Pairc Colmcille has not gone unnoticed and he had no shortage of suitors of late.

McKinley is poised to join Glenswilly, beaten semi-finalists in the 2018 Donegal SFC.

McKinley trained Glenfin for a short time prior to taking up the Naomh Colmcille role.

Now, he is set to take the reigns of the three-time Dr Maguire winners Glenswilly, who have Donegal captain Michael Murphy in their ranks.

Glenswilly will also compete in Division 1 of the All-County Football League.

The move will give McKinley a chance to work amongst and come up against the leading lights in Donegal.

Dougie Corbett was last week confirmed as McKinley’s replacement at Naomh Colmcille.
