Tyrone senior football manager Mickey Harte has reportedly axed several veteran All-Ireland winners as he prepares for next season.

The Gaelic Life magazine says that Harte has dropped 12 members of his 2012 squad, including Brian McGuigan and Owen Mulligan.

Sean O'Neill, John Devine and Davy Harte are among the other players that are believed to have been left out of the panel for 2013.

Mulligan had said recently that he was still considering his inter-county future.

Midfielders Aidan Cassidy and Niall McKenna, defenders Damian McCaul and Stephen McNally, as well as attackers Peter Hughes and Ciaran Gervin are the other players dropped.
