Former Kerry manager Peter Keane has joined the Aghabullogue football management team, initially on a short-term deal, The Echo understands.<\/p>\n

In what is a major coup for the Muskerry club, he will link up with his younger brother, Ray Keane, who is the manager of Aghabullogue.<\/p>\n

The latter is the new Cork U20 football boss on a two-year term and his full focus at the moment is on the Rebels given their championship is starting in April.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, a decision was taken to bring in Peter for a number of months to join the management team.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s meeting the players for the first time tonight. There\u2019s a possibility that he could stay until the end of the season.<\/p>\n

Peter managed the Kerry minor team to three consecutive All-Ireland titles between 2016 and 2018 and led the Kingdom seniors to the 2019 All-Ireland final, which they lost to Dublin after a replay.<\/p>\n

He was most recently boss of the Clare senior football team for the 2025 season.<\/p>\n
