Podge Collins will not be part of the Clare Senior Football Panel for 2017.
The Cratloe man has committed to the hurlers for the coming year, having opted not to continue his dual role which he fulfilled this season.
It's the first time since 2013 that Collins will focus solely on hurling, having opted to only play football in 2015.
Former Clare captain Tommy Guilfoyle says while it's a huge boost for the squad, Collins will have to work hard to ensure his starting place.
