LIMERICK HURLER DAVID Breen is set to be sidelined for the remainder of the league as he gets set to undergo a knee operation.
Breen will go under the knife this week to correct a long-standing problem in the wake of his club Na Piarsaigh’s recent All-Ireland semi-final defeat.
He will not be involved in the remainder of Limerick’s Division 1B hurling campaign as a result with ties looming against Wexford, Offaly and Laois in March.
“It is something that I have been putting off for a couple of seasons now but with one season rolling into the next between club and county, I said now is the right time to get it down.

“It is just a chronic kind of knee injury that has been going on for a while. It is swelling up a lot, then going down and swelling up again. When you are in the gym and on the pitch you are not really giving it a chance. I am just getting a knee scope done.
“I think you will be talking about late April by the time I am back and just from a personal point of view as well there is a lot of driving up and down from Dublin and I need a break from that. That has been kept going by Na Piarsaigh so I need to take a bit of time out.”
