Icelandic coach Heimir Hallgrímsson has been appointed as the new Republic of Ireland men's national team manager, ending an eight-month search for Stephen Kenny's permanent successor. Hallgrímsson, who previously managed Iceland and Jamaica, is noted for his role in Iceland's historic Euro 2016 victory over England and their first-ever World Cup qualification in 2018. The 57-year-old has been given a 17-month contract with a notable salary increase and significant bonuses tied to World Cup qualification. His first competitive match will be against England in the Nations League on September 7. Hallgrímsson aims to bring a 'back to basics' approach to improve the underperforming team and work closely with the young squad to achieve better results at major tournaments.
