Joey Carbery: ‘I wanted to play more and get out of Johnny’s shadow’
Joey Carbery prepares for a possible first start for Munster this Friday admitting he left Leinster to “get out of the shadow of Johnny Sexton”.
Meeting the media as a Munster player for the first time yesterday since his summer move south and ahead of a potential first start in the number 10 jersey against Ospreys in Cork on Friday night, the 22-year-old explained the reasons behind his decision to leave his home province, his enjoyment of a new environment and the intention to make his mark long-term in a red jersey.
