Tony McEntee reportedly preferred choice to take over as Mayo manager
Former Sligo manager Tony McEntee has emerged as the preferred choice to take over as manager of Mayo. According to the Connacht Telegraph , McEntee is the main contender for the job, having left Sligo following their quarter-final exit from the Tailteann Cup. Advertisement McEntee was in charge of Sligo from 2020 to 2025, where he won a Division Four title, and reached two Tailteann Cup semi-finals. Last week, Mayo GAA announcd Kevin McStay was relieved of his role as the manager, alongside his backroom team. Since his departure, several names have been linked to the role, including James Horan, Andy Moran, and Oisin McConville. Horan has had two spells in charge of the county, reaching a combined four All-Ireland finals, with his last spell ending in 2022. Moran is currently part of the backroom team at Monaghan, who has their season eneded by Donegal in the All-Ireland quarter-finals. McConville is yet to comment on what his future holds, with Wicklow's season over after their semi-final exit in the Tailteann Cup to Limerick. It is unlikely an appointment will be made before Mayo GAA have their county board meeting on Wednesday.
