FORMER KERRY FOOTBALLER Paul Galvin has been linked with a move from Kilmacud Crokes to St Oliver Plunkett Eoghan Ruadh for the 2017 season.
The 2009 Footballer of the Year, and four-time All-Ireland winner, played a handful of games last season for Crokes but has reportedly requested a switch to the Navan Road side, and the home club of the Brogan brothers.
Both the Irish Independent and Irish Examiner say the Dublin County Board are expected to rubberstamp the move when they reconvene in January.
The 37-year-old, who retired from inter-county duty in 2015, moved from his home club of Lixnaw to Crokes last year but a switch to Dublin rivals St Oliver Plunkett could see him play both football and hurling in 2017.
His arrival at Plunketts would be a major coup for the club who have been beaten finalists in the Dublin Senior Football Championship three times since 2008.

Up the Dubs
indeed…but last weeks game was like a dublin team 20 years ago. +7 victory for Cork. Cunningham needs to go.
Yep, there is something wrong in the camp.
@gold3n: Well in the game now, Nash really kept Cork in it with those saves.
Hey, listen I really hope we do well but I think we’ve taken a step back with this new managment setup. Don’t forget Cork have also been shocking over the past 18 months.
Just when we think we’re going to have a good year we lose to what was being described as the worst Dublin team of all time… More fake news…
Cork are in the same boat as us. They have struggled the past 18/24 months. Beating by a bad Wexford team last year??
Great to see our lads competing. Was expecting a hammering after last week. If it wasn’t for 2 great saves by Nash we could be well ahead.
Pa Horgan is having a shocker out there tonight.
Is this on TV?
Eir sport.
Anthony Dalys commentary is a disgrace here totally one sided.
@John Carroll: Can you blame him considering how bad Cork were?
Could have stayed in it if Pa Horgan learned how to pick up the ball in training for the penalty! Could have Used a Nash Rocket instead of a bobbly one.
@John Boyle Cork like any other county are entitled to be as good or as bad as they want over the seventhy minutes but they should like any other county be entitled to a fair non bias commentary and if Daly cant do that he should head off back to Clare and milk his cows!!!
Great win for Dublin after the poor result v tipp last week. Very poor cork side who will struggle to stay up after that performance. Great to see the dubs compete and show hunger and commitment. Something to build on. Looks like a toss up between dubs rebels and banner for the drop.
