ROSS County manager Derek Adams is looking to further strengthen his strikeforce after finally completing the signing of Canada defender Andre Hainault.

Hainault joins winger Ivan Sproule, defender Evangelos Ikonomou and forward Steffen Wohlfarth in signing for the Dingwall side this month after he secured all of his work permit documentation. But Adams has let seven players leave in recent weeks and is working on more deals before the January transfer window closes tomorrow.

Adams, whose team face Hibernian in the SPL tonight, said: “I still think there will be a wee bit.

“We are still working on a few things, we have been for a long time and let’s see what happens.

“We are looking more now in the forward area, we have probably done all our business defensively and we’ll look to add to the forward area.”

Hainault, 26, signs from Houston Dynamo, who he helped to two consecutive Major League Soccer Cup finals. He has been training with County for several weeks. Adams told the club’s website: “Our interest in Andre has been no secret and, when you look at his record, that’s no surprise.

“Despite still only being a young player, he’s got experience of playing in Europe as well as at a top side in the MLS which is now an extremely good league which features world-class players.”
