Leinster confirm Noel McNamara as new head coach from next season
Leinster have confirmed that Noel McNamara will succeed Leo Cullen as head coach next summer. Cullen will depart the role after 12 years at the conclusion of the 2026/27 season.
The 43-year-old McNamara will join Leinster from Bordeaux Bègles where he is currently the club’s attack coach. He helped them to deliver back-to-back Champions Cup titles including last May’s final victory over the Irish province in Bilbao.
