Leitrim manager Terry Hyland has revealed that two players have left the squad ahead of the Connacht championship.

Both Darragh Rooney and Conor Cullen have left the panel according to Hyland who also revealed to the Leitrim Observer that there were no other changes to the squad.

Rooney is seen a big loss for the Connacht side, while Cullen was one of the up and coming stars in the squad.

“Darragh Rooney is not available, Darragh is going to America and there is talk that Conor Cullen is going to America,” said Hyland.

“I’ve had that before, I was involved with Cavan and brought in six under-21s and they went off, that’s just the way of life.

“It is not any disrespect to the county, these young fellas have finished college and they have got this opportunity before they start work and that is the way it is.”
