Coleman credits GAA background for Toffees progress
Ireland international Seamus Coleman believes his background in Gaelic football has put him
in good stead for life in the Premier League with Everton.
The 23-year-old tasted success with underage Donegal teams and well as his club side Killybegs
before opting to pursue a career in soccer when former Sligo Rovers manager Sean Connor saw enough
of the St Catherine's defender to offer him a contract in the League of Ireland.
