BERNARD BROGAN PAID tribute to “one of the greatest number 10s to play the game” as Kerry legend Paul Galvin retired from inter-county football.
Galvin made the shock announcement last night, calling time on a career that was never dull and saw him win four All-Irelands and the 2009 Footballer of the Year award.
He was the “most honest footballer I ever played with,” former Kerry team-mate Tadhg Kennelly said. “Always played with so much passion and bleeds green and gold.”
Donegal’s Mark McHugh said: “I’d say the amount of young people over this last 10 years [that] have looked up to [Galvin] is immense! A true legend and some footballer.”
