Brian Flanagan will be ratified as Kildare's new senior football manager next month.
Kildare GAA's Management Committee has proposed the Johnstownbridge clubman for the role which was vacated by Glenn Ryan after a disappointing 2024 campaign. Flanagan's nomination will be brought forward for ratification at a Kildare county board meeting on Tuesday, September 3.
Flanagan led the Lilywhites to All-Ireland U20 glory last year as well as to back-to-back Leinster titles in 2022 and ’23. He was also involved with Summerhill when they won the Meath SFC title last year.
His management team will include Aidan O'Rourke - who managed Armagh to this year's All-Ireland MFC final - and former Kildare players Damien Hendy and Daryl Flynn.
