John Delaney has offered to step down from his role
This came in the aftermath of a newspaper report that suggested he loaned the association €100,000 in 2017 to cover a cash-flow problem.
Last week, he told an Irish parliamentary committee, who are examining the FAI’s finances and governance arrangements, that he loaned the organisation the money so it would avoid exceeding its overdraft.

The loan was not flagged to Sport Ireland and funding to the association has been suspended as a result.
Delaney had offered “voluntarily to step aside pending the completion of an independent investigation into issues of concern to the boardâ€, according to an FAI statement.
Honorary secretary Michael Cody and treasurer Eddie Murray have resigned.
