Vinnie Corey has taken the reins with Monaghan
Monaghan have announced Vinnie Corey as their new senior football manager on a three-year term.
This comes after a lengthy process to replace Séamus ‘Banty’ McEnaney since the post was vacated in June. It was reported that several candidates were approached about the role, including Dublin legend Jason Sherlock.
Corey represented the county for 17 seasons as a player, between 2004 and 2019. As a defender, he helped Monaghan to two Ulster titles.
He worked under McEnaney with the county team since his retirement.
Corey was a selector with McEnaney
The Clontibret man was announced for the role on Thursday night.
“Monaghan GAA are delighted to announce Vinnie Corey as our new senior football manager,” read a statement.
“Vinnie with his backroom team of Martin Corey, Dermot McArdle and Gabriel Bannigan were ratified at tonight’s county committee meeting in the Four Seasons Hotel, Monaghan for a three-year term. The backroom team will be finalised in the coming weeks.”
Corey’s brother Martin joins from Cavan, having worked in Mickey Graham’s backroom team in recent years.
