Mark Fitzgerald has stepped down as manager of the Clare senior football team.
A statement released by Clare GAA on Friday morning confirmed Fitzgerald's departure.
In 2024, Clare reached the Munster SFC Final losing to Kerry 0-23 to 1-13 at Cusack Park. "I'd like to thank Clare County Board for their unwavering support over the year," Fitzgerald said.
"I'd also like to thank the management and backroom team of Clare senior football for their tireless work throughout the season.
"Finally, I'd like to thank the players who have shown huge commitment and dedication since taking up the role.
"I will be taking up a position with the Kerry U20 footballers and the opportunity to work with my own county was something I couldn't turn down.
"I enjoyed my time with Clare immensely and I wish them the very best of luck going forward."
