The Football Association of Ireland today (February 1) confirmed that it has reached a mutually agreeable settlement with Endemol Sport in relation to the Dublin Super Cup, under which Endemol has ended its involvement in the competition.

The FAI's original agreement with Endemol Sport Iconic was announced last year and the Dublin Super Cup was played in Aviva Stadium on July 30 -31.

Further to its settlement with Endemol Sport, the FAI has reached a new and similar agreement with one of the principals involved in last year's competition, Iconic Worldwide Events, to host a similar tournament in Dublin. Iconic Worldwide Events is run by Damien O'Brien, and is the company that created the successful televised show, Football's Next Star.

The Iconic run tournament will continue to host top named British and European clubs and details will be announced by Iconic and the Football Association of Ireland in the coming period.
