Kildare County have extended defender Alan McDermott's contract for another year ahead of their final home game of the season against Kilkenny City at 7.30pm this evening.
County boss John Ryan has already re-signed striker Philip Gorman and midfielder Alan Byrne.
Gorman is suspended while fellow striker Trevor Bowers is out due to illness. McDermott (knee) and midfielder Gareth Christie (dead leg) require fitness tests.
Kilkenny City caretaker boss Gary Coad has defender Cathal Sweetman back from a ban as they look for a first win in 23 games.
