The game will form part of a double header with his old team, the Dublin footballers. Jim Gavin’s charges begin their quest to reclaim their crown from Kerry with a matchup against Kildare.
The proposed fixtures for the 2018 Allianz League will see Dublin’s footballers playing Kildare, Tyrone, Donegal, Mayo, Kerry, Galway and Monaghan.
All-Ireland hurling champions Galway will open their Allianz League defence in Division 1B at home to Antrim on Sunday on January 28th.
