Kerry selector Diarmuid Murphy departs backroom team

Eamonn Fitzmaurice has tipped his former Kerry selector Diarmuid Murphy for a future in management after the Dingle man stepped down from his role yesterday.

Murphy has been part of Kerry management teams for the last six seasons under Fitzmaurice, since 2013, and previously Jack O’Connor.

Kerry qualified for three All-Ireland finals in that period, beating Donegal in the 2014 decider, while they also claimed five of the six Munster titles on offer.
