Former Ireland coach Eddie O'Sullivan has emerged as a possible successor to Scott Johnson as coach of the USA team.

Australian Johnson, formerly caretaker Wales boss, is leaving the Americans at the end of the season to take over at Welsh club Ospreys.

O'Sullivan was in charge of the US Eagles before becoming Ireland's assistant coach in 1999.

He won three Triple Crowns as Irish boss and has recently made two coaching trips to the United States.
