GALWAY STAR DAVID Burke has sustained a cruciate ligament knee injury and will miss the remainder of the season.
Galway Bay FM Sport are reporting that the Tribe’s 2017 All-Ireland winning captain suffered the injury in training during the week.
Burke, Galway’s all-time championship appearance holder, came on as a substitute in last weekend’s win over Clare in Ennis.
The St Thomas midfielder is a four-time All-Star and has been a central figure for club and county through the years.
In his absence, Henry Shefflin’s side are in action against Westmeath this afternoon.

I know he’s a good looking guy but creaming him is a bit much
“Do the welfare?, do the welfare?, do the welfare know you’re playing?, doooo the welfare know you’re playing? “. Ian Bermingham captain fantastic omitted to add his dole fraud during 2011, 2012 & 2013 for which he was convicted.
@Michael McLoughlin: Fake news. He wasn’t convicted. He repaid the money in full (€4512) and the judge struck out the case. http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/soccer-star-avoids-conviction-for-claiming-4k-dole-while-working-31554451.html
Very nice piece Aaron. In a greatest Pat’s 11 not many would suggest other challengers to the No 3 jersey worn by Ian Bermingham.
He’s won 4 champions leagues
@James Baxter: 3 with the La Liga club as stated
