Airdrie sign Killie striker in loan deal

Airdrie have snapped up teenage striker Kyle Connell on loan from Kilmarnock until January.

Connell,19, will sign subject to the completion of paperwork, in a bid to gain first-team experience.

The striker signed a professional contract at the Rugby Park club last August, having previously been with Motherwell and Blackburn Rovers.

Airdrie boss Ian Murray told the club's website: "We’re delighted to welcome Kyle to the club. He’s a player who can hold the ball up and the link the play, and he adds to our attacking options."

Director of football Stuart Millar said: "Kyle is a player who is very highly thought of, and I’d like to thank James Fowler, Alex Dyer and Andy Millen at Kilmarnock for entrusting us with their player.”
