The FAI has confirmed John Delaney's new salary as Executive Vice-President of the organisation will be substantially less than what he earned as CEO.
He's taken up the new role with immediate effect.
A recruitment process will begin tomorrow morning to find a new Chief Executive Officer, with a view to appointing Mr Delaney's replacement in July.
In the past week, there has been controversy over a 100,000 euro bridging loan John Delaney provided the FAI in 2017.
The association has also confirmed he will appear before an Oireachtas Committee next month, and requested that the hearing is brought forward.
