    Tony O’Reilly, one of Ireland’s leading business figures, has died at the age of 88.

    O’Reilly, who had a career in the media as well as being an international rugby
    player for Ireland and the British and Irish Lions, died in St Vincent’s hospital in Dublin on Saturday.

    Born in Dublin in 1936, O’Reilly made his international debut for Ireland in rugby in 1955 and soon became the youngest player to be selected for the Lions.
