Past and current footballers were among those to Tweet their support to injured Donegal star Patrick McBrearty.
McBrearty sustained the injury in Sunday’s Ulster final win over Fermanagh in Clones.
Legendary Kerry defender Tomas Ó Sé said McBrearty’s absence was ‘an awful loss for football fans’ while former Tyrone captain Sean Cavanagh said the injury was ‘cruel timing for a man act the peak of his sport’.
Horrible news on @PaddyMcBrearty

That news about Paddy McBrearty has ruined my whole week. Gutted for the lad. Was looking forward to him doing his stuff against Dublin. Impossible to replace that scoring threat #gaa

Awful news for Donegal & Paddy McBrearty. He has been the outstanding player of 2018 if you include league and championship.

Gutted for Patrick McBrearty. Not only a big loss to us in Donegal but a huge loss to the Championship as a spectacle with the form he was in. Speedy recovery Paddy 💪 #donegalgaa #GAA https://t.co/X9W5AkTzIa
