Galvin in race against time to be fit for Munster final

PAUL GALVIN is a major doubt for Kerry’s Munster final against Cork on July 3 after pulling up with a recurrence of a hamstring injury in training on Thursday night.

The 2009 footballer of the year hobbled off for treatment after damaging the same hamstring he injured in the Kingdom’s final Allianz Division 1 game against Down.

As he recovered from that setback, Galvin featured as a second-half substitute in Kerry’s Munster SFC wins over Tipperary and Limerick. However, he had been expected to be in contention for a starting place in Fitzgerald Stadium tomorrow fortnight.
