Antrim defender Paddy McAleer has revealed that he doesn’t expect to return in time to feature for the Saffrons in this season’s Allianz Football League.
The Ballymena wing-back has been sidelined for the first two rounds as he continues to struggle with a hip injury and a groin strain.
He had hoped to play some part in Antrim’s Division Three campaign, but a recent setback means he is now focused on returning to action when the Championship season gets under way in April.
