FORMER CONNACHT COACH Michael Bradley is being linked to a position in a revamped Munster management for next season.
Head coach Anthony Foley is about to have his contract extended for a third year but it is expected that there may be some changes to the management team.
Bradley, who spent seven years in charge of Connacht, has been working as an assistant coach in two spells with Georgia for the past few seasons and helped them win two games at the recent World Cup.
His roles in Georgia have been with the backs and as defence coach.
The former Irish captain also spent two seasons in charge of Edinburgh but it is believed he is being lined up for a role in a revamped Munster management.
Foley’s contract extension is expected to be confirmed in the coming weeks and work is ongoing to have the revamped structure in place for the start of next season.
Bradley, a former Ireland A and U20 coach, is due to return to Georgia in the new year to help them prepare for the defence of their European Nations Cup title — essentially a Six Nations B competition — against Russia, Romania, Spain, Portugal and Belgium.
It is expected that any changes to the Foley’s backroom team will not take place until the summer.
