KERRY manager Jack O’Connor has gone back to the future and drafted in former coach Cian O’Neill to fire the Kingdom’s All-Ireland ambitions in 2025.

O’Neill finished his three-year term with the Galway footballers in the wake of their gut-wrenching All-Ireland final loss to Armagh but, as is his wont, hasn’t stayed idle for long.
