Ireland goalkeeper Colin Doyle joins Kilmarnock on loan until January

Colin Doyle has moved to Kilmarnock on loan until January.

With Jake Eastwood out for three months after picking up an injury in the SPL opener against Hibs, Ireland international keeper Doyle, 35, has been brought in to fight it out with Danny Rogers for competitive action.

Doyle has spent the last two seasons with Hearts and said: "I'm really excited by the opportunity to play football again whenever I'm given an opportunity.

“I’m looking forward to meeting up with the lads and hopefully I can show what I can do for the team whenever I’m given an opportunity.”   

Kilmarnock boss Alex Dyer remarked: “After what has happened to Jake in terms of his unfortunate injury, I felt it was important to bring in an experienced goalkeeper, who has knowledge of the league.

“Colin has experience of playing in big games and we welcome him to the club".
