Photograph: James Crombie/InphoThere has been plenty of chatter on Leeside that the 26-year-old was to take a break from Pat Ryan’s Cork squad and instead spend some time travelling in 2025 – but it seems to be nothing more than a rumour. .
“In fairness to Pat, he’s been letting us off for the last few weeks so that we can focus on the club. I’m sure I’ll speak to him after the match on Sunday as regards a plan.” “It’s incredible to think really that you’re going up to Croke Park with some of your best friends since you were four or five years old, your family and your cousins and all that,” adds O’Connor. “I don’t think anyone would have seen this coming, so it’s great.”
