TYRONE ALL-IRELAND winner Ryan McMenamin has joined the Sligo senior footballers in a coaching role ahead of the 2027 season.

McMenamin will replace Donegal All-Ireland winner Eamonn McGee, who had informed the Sligo county board he was unable to ‘commit the time required for an intercounty management role’.

The Sligo county board on Tuesday night announced McMenamin had been ratified as the addition to Dessie Sloyan’s team.

In August, Sligo had revealed Sloyan would manage the team next year with Eamon O’Hara as assistant manager, the pair had worked in joint managerial roles for the 2026 season.
