Seamus oshea returns to training

MAYO midfielder Seamus O’Shea is set to return to training on Wednesday evening in preparation for the country's  All-Ireland quarterfinal on August 8, The Connaught Telegraph has learned.

The influential Breaffy powerhouse sustained a groin injury during the Connaught SFC final victory over Sligo and was forced to cry off after just 24 minutes.

He explained: 'It was in a tackle and whatever way I twisted or turned, I gave my groin a bit of a pull.'

News of his return to action will be warmly welcomed by Mayo supporters as he is such a key figure in the team.
