Dublin manager Dessie Farrell looks set to be dealt a further blow ahead of the 2025 season with the news that star midfielder Brian Fenton is to retire, as reported by The Irish Times.

The shock decision of the 31-year-old to step out of the inter-county arena comes off the back of James McCarthy’s retirement, which was confirmed earlier this month.

The Raheny man won seven All-Ireland medals during his 10 seasons in sky blue, as well as 10 Leinster medals, and he was awarded two player of the year awards in that time.

The midfielder won six All-Star awards and was involved in Dublin sides that claimed national football league title in four seasons.

Fenton, who didn’t lose a championship game with the Dubs from his debut in 2015 until 2021, bows out widely recognised as one of the greatest midfielders in the game.

He was part of a Dublin team that created history with six consecutive senior football titles, beating the previous record of four on the spin held by Kerry and Wexford.
