With automatic qualification in sight, Ireland travel to Poland this weekend with another boost if reports are to be believed.
According to the Irish Sun the FAI have offered Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane a new contract to steer Ireland to the 2018 World Cup.
Reports suggest that the 63-year-old was offered a two year extension on top of his existing deal before Ireland's historic win over world champions Germany on Thursday.
The existing deal terminates at the end of this European Championships campaign.
Roy Keane is also expected to stay as part of the set-up if the pair remain in charge of the international team.
FAI CEO, John Delaney, previously spoke about keeping the pair on and said: “We appointed them to qualify.
“The Irish public expect us to qualify and the rules have changed that there’s 24 teams going to the Euros instead of 16.
“The odds are in our favour.”
