Michael Langan has been nominated for the GAA.ie Player of the Week after Donegal’s win over Dublin in Croke Park.

The 2025 All-Star winner was named Man of the Match in the 1-20 to 0-20 win over the Dubs on Saturday evening, kicking six points, including two superb two-pointers in wet conditions.

And Young Player of the Year Finnbarr Roarty has continued his fine form into 2026 as the Naomh Conaill man made a few brilliant interceptions, also getting a point for his side.

St Michael’s man Langan is up for Player of the Week alongside Kerry’s Tomás Kennedy and Armagh’s Conor Turbitt.
