“Throughout my 15-year career, representing Cork in both hurling and football, I can rest easy in the knowledge that I did so with pride, respect and honour for my teammates, my club, my supporters and the Cork jersey” said Cadogan of his retirement.

“To the current Cork management team, the management teams and coaches of the past, I thank you for always showing your belief in me as an individual and wish them well for the future.

“I look forward to the new challenges and opportunities that await me as the journey continues in a new direction.”
