Cormac Costello has said that Pat Gilroy will be a hands-on coach in his new role with Dublin footballers.
It was confirmed last month that the 2011 All-Ireland winning manager would be returning to the set up under current boss Dessie Farrell though there was some mystery over just what his role would be, with Gilroy recognised more as a strategist than a coaching guru.
But, with the team having recently regrouped ahead of the 2023 season, Dubs attacker Costello confirmed that he’ll be in the thick of things on the training pitch - an area where players apparently felt that there had been a fall-off in expertise since Jim Gavin and his regime moved on three years ago.
