Jack O'Connor will be ratified for a new two-year term as Kerry senior football manager at a county board meeting on Tuesday night. His backroom team of Cian O’Neill, Aodán Mac Gearailt, James Costello, and Pa McCarthy will also return.

The announcement will bring to a close a month of speculation about O'Connor's future in the role. That speculation had been set alight by O'Connor after Kerry's All-Ireland final victory over Donegal, his fifth senior title win with the Kingdom.
