Jim McGuinness WILL stay on as manager of the Donegal GAA team for 2014.
After a number of weeks considering his role, the Glenties man has confirmed his intention to stay on as manager this afternoon.
The chairman of the Donegal GAA, Sean Dunnion, met with the manager this morning.
A message posted on the Official Donegal GAA Facebook confirmed the deal had been done.
The message read “Following a meeting earlier today between Chairperson of Donegal GAA Sean Dunnion and Donegal Senior Football Team Manager, Jim McGuinness, Donegal GAA are delighted to confirm that Jim Mc Guinness will continue as senior football team manager for the 2014 season.”
McGuinness had met with county board officials recently and also a number of senior clubs outlining his position.
The manager said he wanted reassurances on a number of matters before agreeing to continue as manager.
Earlier this week a meeting of the clubs decided that the senior football championship in the county would be delayed until Donegal’s finished their participation in next year’s All-Ireland championship.
McGuinness, whose wife Yvonne gave birth to twins last week, will continue to work for Glasgow Celtic FC from Monday to Thursday.
