Gavin Cooney (@gcooney93): One of the most remarkable things about Dan O’Toole’s rise to the top of world football is how few people in Ireland knew about it.
O’Toole is chief of staff at Fifa, but was a largely unknown figure even in Irish football circles until last week, when he was named by the New York Times as one of only two men at Fifa who have known for months about the World Cup sell-off plans that have shaken the world of sport.
The other man in the know was Fifa president Gianni Infantino.

Troy Parrott is drawing interest from at least five clubs. As previously reported on @talkSPORT, Fulham have shown an interest pre-dating the summer. Como, PSV, Real Betis and Ajax have also made recent enquiries. Irish striker scored 31 goals for AZ last season.🇮🇪
