Speaking on tonight, 2013 All-Ireland winning Clare boss Fitzgerald spoke for the first time about the Galway situation.
"Listen, I got a phone call two weeks ago to have a chat and I had one or two meetings with Galway and that," he said. "It just ended up where Henry ended up in the job and listen, he's got a great bunch of players and best of luck to him.

"When you look at everything, between playing and managing, it's probably been 32 or 33 years on the go," said the Sixmilebridge man.
"It's going to be a bit strange. Wexford was an incredible experience that I really enjoyed but I'll put the feet up now for a while, that's the way it's going to be.
"Listen, I've loved every bit of it (managing Wexford). The journey up and down to Wexford is incredibly long and tough but the way I was treated down there was absolutely fantastic.
"Unbelievable people and the same in Clare and Waterford. I've been lucky, I've had a great 14 years in management, and playing then as well."
