Ireland has been home to several famous football stars, from Roy Keane to Paul McGrath. However, undoubtedly, the most famous sports personality in the country is Conor McGregor. Interestingly, the Notorious, who achieved fortune and worldwide popularity at a young age, initially wished to be a footballer rather than a combat sports athlete. While Mcgregor didn’t pursue a soccer career, he is preparing his elder son to have one.
