People don't typically pick up accents after they've already formed their own.

He may have picked up some slang words, but his accent should be the same.

Maybe It will be a kind of mixture lol, I don't know, some people's accent changes when they live in a different country for several years, some don't, and some just mix 'em up lol

It may have a bit of an undertone of Irish from being around the pronounciation of words for so long, but it will still sound much more like an American accent, since he learned how to speak that way.
