A betting site has listed the likes of Martin McGuinness and Bono as possibilities to replace Michael D Higgins as the next President of Ireland.

Paddy Power has more serious contenders like the deputy First Minister listed at 12/1 for the post, while it also places the likes of Bono and Irish football manager Roy Keane in the running at 100/1.

Some of the favourites to win are politician Mairead McGuinness at 6/1 and broadcaster Miriam O’Callaghan 7/1.

Among a host of other politicians, Eurovision winner and former MEP and presidential candidate Dana is backed at 66/1.

Taoiseach Enda Kenny made the list at 33/1.

Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams is available at 80/1, while his deputy Mary Lou McDonald has odds of 20/1.

In a broader approach, bets can also be placed for ‘any candidate aged 34 or under’ at 33/1.

It is expected the Taoiseach will hold a general election in 2016 but a date is yet to be confirmed.
