Republic of Ireland assistant football manager Liam Brady is in a "stable and comfortable condition" after being rushed to hospital on Thursday morning.

The ex-Irish international and Arsenal star was admitted to the coronary care unit of Beaumont Hospital after experiencing back and chest pains.

A Football Association of Ireland spokesman said that "medical investigations are ongoing".

Brady felt unwell after Wednesday's friendly against Norway in Oslo.

"Liam will remain under observation overnight in Beaumont Hospital. We all wish Liam a full and speedy recovery," added the FAI.

The Arsenal legend arrived back in Dublin with the rest of the coaching staff at around 0200 BST and he was taken to hospital a few hours later.

In addition to his Republic of Ireland role, Brady is also director of Arsenal's youth academy.
