Peter Keane will be announced as the new Kerry senior football manager on Monday night.
RTÉ understands that the Kingdom's minor manager will be confirmed as Eamonn Fitzmaurice's successor after Monday's meeting of the County Board.
Maurice Fitzgerald, Donie Buckley and Tommy Griffin are expected to be named as his selectors. Kerry County Board Chairman Tim Murphy said however there will be no announcement until after Monday.
Keane, 47, took over the minors from Jack O’Connor in 2016 and went on to win three All-Irelands on the bounce.
Fitzmaurice stepped away from the role in August, saying at the time that hoped the next manager would be afforded "time and space" to achieve success after what he called a "negative atmosphere" surrounding the players.
"With a new man in charge, it will hopefully afford him a bit of time and space, a bit of patience within our own county to allow them to develop to their full potential," he said.
"I genuinely think they will benefit from a change of voice. A new scene and a new energy."
