Shane O’Donnell has indicated that this could be his last season hurling for Clare.

The 2013 All-Ireland SHC final replay hat-trick hero revealed to the media at the launch of this year’s Darkness Into Light event that he’s thinking of returning to the US where he was based in 2018/19.

“Ideally in America, but the big thing in America is being able to get a visa,” the 30-year-old Éire Óg sharpshooter said.

“The company I work for have somewhat of a base in America so it would possibly be an opportunity in the next year or two to move with them.

“I kind of mentioned last year that I'm taking it a year at a time and that's definitely how I'm thinking about it at the moment. I wouldn't rule out playing next year, but I wouldn't be absolutely certain I would either.

“I think it's more about work...I want to work abroad and move abroad and take that opportunity while I still have it and strike while the iron is hot in some sense from my work perspective and where I'm at with that.

“That's kind of my thinking. It's a challenging decision to make, obviously. It's not one I would make lightly. I'm basically just taking it a year at time at the moment.”
