Bevan Duffy has confirmed his retirement from inter-county football after 13 seasons involved with Louth.
The St Fechins club man made more than 100 appearances for the Wee County since his championship debut against Westmeath in 2015, with a Leinster title finally arriving in his last season.
He started in that historic victory over Meath at Croke Park, playing over an hour, with his last appearance coming against Down in the All-Ireland group stages in May. Louth went on to beat Clare before Donegal ended their summer.
"After 13 seasons with Louth, I've decided to retire from inter-county football," he said in a statement.
"It's been an unbelievable honour to wear the Louth jersey, and I’m grateful for every moment. Thank you to my family and friends for all the support — especially my mam and dad, and my wife, Phoebe.
"A special mention to my daughter, Lydia; having her by my side in recent years has meant the world to me
"To St Fechins, thank you for your support since the day I first stepped onto the pitch on the Sheetland Road. Representing our club and community while playing for Louth has been a real honour."
