Kerry football manager Jack O'Connor has brought Cian O'Neill on board as head coach / selector for 2025.

O'Neill, who was involved with Padraic Joyce's Galway for the last three years, previously coached the Kingdom between 2013 and '15 when Eamonn Fitzmaurice was manager. Kerry lifted the Sam Maguire Cup in 2014 after defeating Donegal in the final.

It's the latest in a growing list of inter-county postings for O'Neill who also managed his native Kildare between 2016 and '19 and had other coaching stints with the Limerick, Mayo and Cork footballers as well as the Tipperary hurlers when they won the All-Ireland in 2010.

Former Kerry All-Ireland winning forward Aodán MacGearailt and ex-Kerry minor manager James Costello are the other changes to the management, replacing Diarmuid Murphy and Micheál Quirke as selectors.
