NEW SIGNING: Kieran McGrath
The club is pleased to announce the signing of forward Kieran McGrath.
The 20-year-old came through the academy at Celtic and gained experience during loan spells at East Kilbride and Icelandic side Grótta. He joined the former on a permanent basis in January but with the Lowland League shut down he spent the final months of last season on loan at Peterhead.
Danny Lennon commented after McGrath signed a two-year deal at Broadwood:-
“Kieran is a natural goal scorer. He certainly knows where the goals are. He’s had a good pedigree of coaching through the Hibs and Celtic youth systems and it shows in the technical ability, vision and creativity that we have seen from him. At the tender young age of 20 he’s had some first team experience at East Kilbride, Peterhead and in Iceland, which will have proved a steep learning curve for him.
“We’ve certainly been impressed with what we’ve seen from him in pre-season training. Again, he’s adding something different in attack for us. He’s now at that critical age where he needs to take full advantage of the opportunities that are offered to him here. He needs to bring the hunger, determination and ability we have seen from him so far and build on that, week on week, and make positive things happen when it counts the most.”
The list of players currently contracted for the 2021-22 campaign is: Conrad Balatoni, Aidan Cassidy, Barry Cuddihy, Ross Cunningham, Mark Docherty, Morgaro Gomis, David Goodwillie, Robert Jones, Adam Livingstone, Ally Love, Kieran McGrath, David Mitchell, Billy Mortimer, Kevin Nicoll, Jonathan Page, Harry Robinson and Scott Rumsby.
