McCarthy makes Kingdom return

MIKE McCARTHY plays his first competitive game for Kerry since the All-Ireland final back in September 2006 after being handed the number six jersey by Kerry boss Jack O’Connor for tomorrow’s home qualifier against Sligo in Tralee.

McCarthy, who only joined the squad over a month ago, might have been seen as a solution to Kerry’s problematic full-back spot, but he will play at centre-back.

Marc O Sé drops back to corner-back, while Aidan O’Mahony plays instead of Aidan O’Shea, with Killian Young giving way for McCarthy.
