Anthony Thompson is currently unavailable to the Donegal senior footballers but the door has been left open.

Reports emanating from within the county suggest that the 30-year-old has told manager Rory Gallagher that he can't currently commit to the team but - unlike Odhrán MacNiallais and Leo McLoone, who have opted our for the entire year - his decision is not a permanent one.

Engineer Thompson, who commuted back and forth from England to represent the Tir Chonaill men in 2015 and - having returned home - was an ever-present for last summer's championship campaign, could rejoin the squad at some point during the season should his circumstances change.
