Former Kerry minor and U20 star, Stefan Okunbor, made a winning return to Gaelic football as he played for Na Gaeil in yesterday’s Kerry IFC quarter-final win over Ballydonoghue.

It was his first game for the Tralee club since returning home from a three-year stint with Australian Rules side Geelong Cats. An Achilles injury and limited game time due to the Covid shutdown stunted his development and now Okunbor is back in the Kingdom and his return will certainly be a welcome boost to incoming Kerry manager Jack O’Connor.
