Kerry captain David Clifford may be the only player permitted to touch the Allianz Football League Division 1 trophy in Austin Stack Park on Saturday.

Victory for Kerry over Donegal, who face Tyrone in a knock-out Ulster SFC quarter-final seven days later, will see them claim the county’s 21st Division 1 title, their second in four seasons.
