Ex-Linfield star Munster aiming to become World Cup manager with Vanuatu

The 37-year-old from Belfast, whose playing and coaching career has included spells in Canada, the Czech Republic, Sweden and Germany, has been appointed the national team manager of Vanuatu.

Currently 163rd in the Fifa world rankings and with a population of roughly 276,000 - almost 4,000 less than that of their new manager's home city - it's perhaps unsurprising that Vanuatu was not previously on Munster's managerial radar.

"To be honest, I had to do a search on Google to find out exactly where the country is," Munster admits.
