Brady is director of Arsenal's youth academy but the club have agreed to him working with the Republic and he will soon formalise his role in talks with the Football Association of Ireland.

"The board of directors and (manager) Arsene Wenger are quite happy for me to do this and to keep my job at Arsenal," Brady told Irish broadcaster RTE.

"Trapattoni needs to get to know the players and I can help him with that."

Brady played under Trapattoni during his spell at Juventus in the 1980s and had always been prepared to help out providing he could combine his role with his duties at the Emirates.

Brady will also work alongside Marco Tardelli.

"I will be with Giovanni Trapattoni and assist him in all he does," added Brady.

One of Brady's first tasks is likely to be attempting to convince Steve Finnan and Andy O'Brien to reverse their decisions to quit international football.
