LMFM are reporting that Mulroy is expected to miss the remainder of the club championship in a major blow to Naomh Máirtín’s title defence hopes.
The Monasterboice side were beaten 0-16 to 1-8 by St Joseph’s on Monday, and face St Fechin’s in their final group game this weekend to determine who finishes second and progresses to the knockout stages.
Mulroy has been a key player for club and county in recent years. He captained Louth to their first Leinster title since 1957 last May, and became just the third man from the county to win an All-Star.
Louth reached the All-Ireland semi-finals this summer, where they were beaten by eventual champions Mayo.
