GAA: Kerry have named Paul Galvin in the starting line-up for Sunday's Allianz National Football League match against Monaghan.

After recovering from an operation on his hip, the Finuge clubman will make his first start of the season, having only featured as a substitute against Armagh so far.

Forwards Bryan Sheehan and Tom O’Sullivan will both miss the game, however, through injury and illness resectively.

Manager Jack O’Connor has also opted to rest Tomás Ó Sé, Eoin Brosnan and Donnchadh Walsh for the trip north, despite the Kingdom lying fourth in Division One behind Down, Cork and leaders Dublin.
