David Clifford needs no introduction at this stage. At just 23 years of age, he has just topped off his incredible list of personal accolades (which include a Young Footballer of the Year gong and three All-Stars) with an All-Ireland medal.
It has been a longer road to the top table for older brother, Paudie. At two years David’s elder, the playmaker endured a frustrating wait for a call-up to the Kingdom squad before he burst on the scene to great effect in 2021, joining his more exalted sibling on the All Star honours list by the year’s end.
Now, as Jack O’Connor's side have ended an eight-year wait to lift Sam Maguire once more, much of the team's success came thanks to the Fossa brothers.
