Kingdom star Moran set to go under the knife for second time

Kerry footballer David Moran will undergo his second cruciate knee ligament operation in less than 12 months tomorrow.

But the 23-year-old Tralee man can’t wait to leave the Santry Sports Surgery Clinic to start plotting his comeback, having pencilled in next year to return to the football field.

Moran will check into the Dublin clinic at 8.30am tomorrow morning and will go under the knife later that day, following the severed cruciate knee ligament injury he suffered while training with his club Kerins O’Rahillys last month, just days after he was given the all-clear following his first cruciate knee injury.
