It’s understood that representative will be from the P.F.A.I.
And while John Delaney remains personally silent on the matter of the women’s team, he has today been voted onto UEFA’s Executive Committee.
The FAI Chief Executive received 48 votes – the second highest tally – and enough to see him join the 8-person committee.
The new role is believed to be worth an additional 100-thousand euro a year to Delaney.
