Galvin targets league return

INJURED midfield ace John Galvin has given Limerick footballers a major boost by declaring that he hopes to return to action in next season’s Allianz FL campaign.

Galvin has been sidelined since tearing the cruciate ligament in his left knee during a challenge game against Down in Dublin last May.

“I’m not too far away from getting out on the field, and all going well I should be able to start doing a bit of training with the county sometime in February,” he said. “And if I don’t have any setbacks I might be able to get in one or two games in the latter stages of the league.”
