O'Neill planning 'next adventure' after leaving Republic of Ireland

Martin O'Neill has indicated he plans to stay in football after stepping down as Republic of Ireland's manager following their Nations League relegation.

O'Neill led Ireland to the last 16 at Euro 2016 but they failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup and dropped out of League B after a 0-0 stalemate away to Denmark on Monday.

The 66-year-old previously enjoyed successful spells with Aston Villa and Leicester City in the Premier League and took charge of Ireland in November 2013 after he was sacked by Sunderland earlier that year.

And O'Neill suggested he will seek another job after ending his five years with Ireland by mutual consent on Wednesday.
