Former Irish international Damien Duff has confirmed his interest in joining a League of Ireland club.

The 36-year-old is currently recovering from an injury that cut short his stint with Melbourne City FC in Australia and is taking part in an FAI-run coaching course in Dublin this month.

As part of his course work, the winger was in the stands to watch St Patricks' Athletic defeat Longford Town last week - which sparked speculation that he would be joining the Saints.

"Even me Ma ... she was upset. She thought I was signing for Pats and I hadn't told her," he joked in an interview with the FAI, which you can watch below.

Duff says that he has not made a decision as yet but he has been impressed by the standard of football he has seen.
