Seamus O'Shea, one of six Mayo footballers to retire since the 2020 season ended, believes a "natural transition" has already been taking place for the past two seasons.

Veteran defender Keith Higgins announced his inter-county retirement on Saturday, following Chris Barrett, David Clarke, O'Shea, Tom Parsons and Donie Vaughan in exiting James Horan's panel since last month's All-Ireland final defeat.
