John Delaney is to step aside as chief executive of the Football Association of Ireland to take up the newly-created post of executive vice-president.Delaney, who has spent the past week defending himself after newspaper reports suggested that he loaned the association 100,000 to cover a cash-flow problem in 2017, has left his current post with immediate effect.


Ahead of today's game, FAI President Donal Conway and FAI Chief Executive John Delaney met members of the local @GibGaels GAA Club #COYBIG #GIBIRL pic.twitter.com/UWXok8ofJT— FAIreland (@FAIreland) March 23, 2019“John is already leading our joint-bid with the Irish FA for the UEFA Under-21 Championships in 2023 and is working closely with the FAs in Northern Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales on the feasibility of a joint bid for the 2030 World Cup.“John’s life has been devoted to Irish football and he will bring the same energy, vitality and inspiration to this new role. We will now begin the recruitment process for a new CEO with an expected appointment ahead of our AGM in Trim at the end of July.”Delaney was installed as chief executive in March 2005 and his at times controversial tenure saw him preside over the redevelopment of the Aviva Stadium and its financial implications.He said: “There have been many challenges for Irish football in my time as CEO and I will be the first to acknowledge that, but I have always given my best for Irish football and I will continue to do that in this new role. “This past fortnight has been very difficult for me on a personal and professional level, and I would like to thank the Board and my work colleagues across the FAI for their support.“It is time now for a new start and I am really looking forward to serving Irish football as best I can as executive vice-president.”
