Dublin GAA star Philly McMahon joins Bohemians as performance coach

Dublin GAA star Philly McMahon has joined Bohemians as a performance coach.

It will be a second stint in League of Ireland football for the eight-time All-Ireland winner.

McMahon is a close friend of Gypsies assistant Trevor Croly and was his strength and conditioning coach at Shamrock Rovers in 2013.

But McMahon - who is a qualified personal trainer and gym owner - won’t be performing that role at Bohs.

Instead, the 33-year-old will work with the Bohemians players on the motivational and mental side of the game.

Bohs recently moved their training base to DCU which is a facility already used by McMahon and the Dublin GAA team.

A Gypsies statement read: Bohemians can confirm that former Dublin footballer Philly McMahon has joined the club as first-team performance coach.

"We are delighted to have him on board, we welcome Philly to Dalymount Park and we wish him the best of luck in his role with our backroom team."
