DAVID CLIFFORD HAS been declared fit and will start for Kerry in Sunday’s All-Ireland quarter final clash with Mayo.
A calf injury ruled the Kingdom’s talisman out of their Munster final triumph over Limerick but has returned to the full-forward line in place of Tony Brosnan.
Clifford is one of three changes for Jack O’Connor’s side while it appears that Mayo will be without the services of Ryan O’Donoghue, who was not named in the starting XV.
However, as manager James Horan has not announced the full squad it remains to be seen whether he will take his place on the bench.
Horan has made just one change to the side that surged past Kildare in the second half to secure their place in the last eight, with Jordan Flynn in for Jason Doherty at wing forward.
For Kerry, David Moran and Dara Moynihan come into their team, with Killian Spillane on the bench and Jack Berry not included in the 26-man matchday panel.
