Clare’s Keelan Sexton is delighted to be back in the squad and is looking forward to the year ahead.

Following the 2019 league campaign, Sexton headed for the United States for the summer, which saw him miss out on the championship as the Banner came within one game of reaching the Super 8s.

The Kilmurry Ibrickane man lined out in the McGrath Cup loss to Limerick and he admitted it was good to be back in the fold.

“Going away last summer was a decision I made myself. I was delighted to be involved for the league and it was a great last day down in Thurles to stay up,” Sexton told the Clare Champion.

“I knew it would be my last chance to do the summer away before college finished and hopefully the job I will be taking up in the future. It was my only chance to go and when I said it to Colm, he was very accepting about it.

“Looking on during the summer, while the lads were playing, was tough but it is great to be back and I am looking forward to it. Hopefully, we can go on to have another good league and championship campaign and bring it on another step.”
