Republic of Ireland assistant manager Marco Tardelli will be in attendance at the Setanta Cup clash between St Patrick’s Athletic and Linfield at Richmond Park tonight.
Giovanni Trapattoni’s right hand man is going to the game to have a look at the impressive Keith Fahey, former Arsenal defender Joe O’Cearuill and striker Mark Quigley.
However, it is thought that Fahey will be Tardelli’s main focus of attention following a number of outstanding displays for the Saints this season.
O’Cearuill has made the Ireland squad before as former manager Steve Staunton capped the defender last May in the friendly matches against Ecuador and Bolivia.
