Former Cork dual star and Laois senior hurling manager Teddy McCarthy will take over the reins of his native Sarsfields in 2016.

The Evening Echo newspaper reports that McCarthy, a two-time All-Ireland winner with the Rebel County in both codes, will succeed Pat Ryan in the role after his departure to assist Kieran Kingston in the Cork senior hurling set-up.

During his club career, McCarthy led Sarsfields to two county hurling titles and he is expected to be a huge asset to the Riverstown outfit as they seek to regain the title that they lost to the Glen this past season.

His son Cian has already won four county titles with Sars and has been a member of the Cork senior hurling team since 2010.
