Fitzgerald is on verge of a sensational comeback with Sixmilebridge as prepares to rejoin the club’s senior side in the coming days.
The South east Clare side are short on cover at number one after Derek Fahy received a facial injury in their win over Inagh Kilnamona on Saturday in Cusack Park.
The two time All Ireland winner retired from inter county hurling in 2008 but is expected to be part of the bridge set up ahead of their County semi final against Cratloe in 2 weeks time.
Meanwhile The Sixmilebridge Native will hear tonight that he’s the only nominated candidate for the position of Clare manager at a special meeting of the Clare county board tonight.
The board are meeting in Ennis, two weeks after they sought nominations to fill the position vacant since July.
