Kilkenny boss Brian Cody has confirmed that Michael Dempsey has stepped away from his management team after 15-years.
Laois man Dempsey joined the Cats' set-up as physical trainer ahead of the 2005 season and was involved in eight All-Ireland victories.
Cody says Dempsey brought a 'huge knowledge' and he 'couldn't speak highly enough' of him.
Legendary former forward D-J Carey is expected to now join Kilkenny's backroom team as a selector.
