FORMER KERRY FOOTBALLER Tomas Ó Sé is on the verge of completing a transfer to Cork club Nemo Rangers.
The 36-year-old, who retired from inter-county football last winter having won five All-Irelands with the Kingdom, lives just outside Cork city in Broadale and teaches at Gaelscoil de hÍde in Fermoy.
According to the Cork Evening Echo, Ó Sé will finalise his switch in the next 24 hours, bringing to an end his career with home club an Ghaeltacht.
The transfer of Ó Sé will be a major boost to club based in the south-side of the city. Nemo were beaten in this year’s SFC semi-final to Ballincollig and haven’t won a county title since 2010, but are still the most successful senior football side in Cork, with 18 titles.
“I can confirm that Tomás Ó Sé’s transfer forms have been put through to Cork County Board,” Bernadette Allen, the Nemo secretary told the Evening Echo yesterday.
“He will be a Nemo Rangers player, hopefully by tomorrow afternoon latest, provided there are no late hiccups which shouldn’t be the case.
“Tomás will be a huge addition to our club and his experience will be invaluable.”
