Canavan should be fit for final, says Harte

TYRONE manager Mickey Harte remains optimistic that his captain Peter Canavan will be fully fit for this Sunday’s All-Ireland final against Armagh.

Harte is picking his team for the historic all-Ulster clash tonight and Canavan is expected to be named.

Speaking in Dublin yesterday, where he picked up the August Vodafone player of the month award on behalf of Brian Dooher, Harte said Canavan’s ankle has improved in the past couple of weeks and optimism is growing that the talismanic full-forward will start.
