Team news: Clifford to captain Kingdom for first time against Dubs

January 24, 2020

New Kerry captain David Clifford.

David Clifford will captain Kerry in their opening Allianz League game against Dublin at Croke Park tomorrow evening.

The Fossa forward was appointed to the role just four days ago, the same week of his 21st birthday, having been nominated by county champions East Kerry.

Manager Peter Keane has picked a strong starting 15 which features eleven players that lined out in the All-Ireland SFC final replay defeat to the Dubs four months ago.

Kerry (Allianz FL Division 1 v Dublin): Shane Ryan; Jason Foley, Tadhg Morley, Shane Enright; Paul Murphy, Gavin Crowley, Brian O Beaglaoich; Tommy Walsh, Adrian Spillane; Gavin O’Brien, Sean O'Shea, Stephen O’Brien; James O’Donoghue, David Clifford, Paul Geaney.

The Allianz Football and Hurling Leagues are back this weekend and so is the Hogan Stand Match Tracker. Join us on Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon for live score and updates from the opening rounds.
