Karl Lacey says Donegal is ‘buzzing’ following Jim McGuinness’ sensational return as senior football manager.

Lacey was an integral part of the Donegal team that won the All-Ireland under McGuinness in 2012 and is hoping he can replicate that success in his second spell in charge.

"The county's buzzing, it's brilliant - I'm delighted for the people of Donegal and the supporters," the Kilcoo manager told BBC NI.

"Everyone's excited and everyone's looking forward to it. I'm delighted for the players first and foremost, they've had a difficult year or two. We know what he brought in previous years - the success, not even on the pitch, it's the collective off the pitch.

"It's the whole county getting behind it, it's an identity thing with Jim, it's the culture, it's who we are and what we represent."
