Tommy Walsh's return is a major boost for Kerry's hopes of retaining the All-Ireland believes Eamonn Fitzmaurice.

The Kerry manager was speaking to RTE Sport tonight and he explained that the former Sydney Swans player will help freshen up his squad.

"It's great news for us that he is coming back," said Fitzmaurice . "When you're trying to retain an All-Ireland title you are going to need new angles and new fellas to come in to drive it on. The return of Tommy will be a boost and Colm (Cooper) getting back to full fitness will also be a boost.

"Tommy will be keen to get back involved. If he's in the squad it's up to himself then to stake a claim for a place on the team. That'll be a situation that will be happening throughout 2015."
