Steve Staunton signing autographs for young fans on a visit to Oriel Park almost two years ago
Former Ireland manager Steve Staunton is on the look out for work again after being asked to leave his role with Sunderland.
The Dundalk man, who had a successful playing career with Liverpool and Aston Villa, was recruited as a match assessor during Steve Bruce’s time at the Stadium of Light.
He continued in that role under Martin O’Neill but has now been deemed surplus to requirements under Paolo Di Canio – who took over the Black Cats at the end of last season.
