Paddy Tally has been appointed Derry senior football manager on a three-year term.
His appointment was ratified by club delegates at last night’s county board meeting in Owenbeg.
He will be joined in his backroom team by Paul McIver, Kevin McGuckin and Paul McFlynn.
Derry are the last county to appoint a senior football boss for 2025 and have been without a manager since Mickey Harte stepped down in July.
Tally was a coach under Harte when the Tyrone won their first All-Ireland title in 2003.
