Kildare midfielder Kevin Feely looks set to miss out on the majority of next season after suffering an Achilles injury.

Lilywhites selectors Johnny Doyle confirmed that the Athy clubman ruptured his Achilles tendon and is now facing several months of rehabilitation.

Having suffered the injury in recent weeks, Feely looks set to miss Kildare’s entire Allianz League campaign next season as well as a chunk of the championship.

"Kevin has an injury, he picked up an injury in a club game that is going to keep him out for a good while, an Achilles injury," Doyle is quoted saying by Sky Sports GAA.

"His Achilles snapped so it's going to take him a while. I'm not sure of a timeframe. Kevin is one of these players that if you say four weeks, he'll be back in three. So, you know, you're probably going to talk about Championship time, all going well."
