Joe Kernan has admitted that he has a strong interest in taking over from Liam Sammon as the new Galway football manager.
It is rumored that he has already been contacted by Galway officials about the vacant position.
Kernan has been out of inter-county management since he stepped down as Armagh boss in 2007, having led the Orchard County to an All Ireland title in 2002.
Kernan presided over the most successful period in Armagh GAA history, leading them to a first All-Ireland title in 2002, a first National League title in 2005 and four Ulster championship triumphs, including a treble between 2004-06.
However, he recently ruled himself out of the running for the vacant Armagh managerial position, citing business commitments for his decision.
So why the keen interest in the Galway job? Well, his mother comes from Galway. Though, I don't know if that has anything to do with it!
