Kilmarnock want Broadfoot

Lee McCulloch is looking to make former Rangers team-mate Kirk Broadfoot his first signing after being instilled as the permanent successor to Lee Clark as manager of Kilmarnock.

The ex-Scottish international is said to be open to a return north, though Rotherham would have to agree to release the defender from the final year of his contract. (Scottish Sun)

Alex McLeish has told Aberdeen fans to lay off captain Ryan Jack. The midfielder has become a target for a section of the support following his decision to leave the club when his contract expires. The 25-year-old is expected to sign for boyhood heroes Rangers once he becomes a free agent and that has also displeased some hardcore fans, who jeered the midfielder when he was introduced at Firhill. McLeish believes the support should be more understanding. (The Scotsman)

Also leaving the dressing room will be youth players Lewis McMinn, Kyle Johnson and Cameron Eadie, while club captain David McCracken will not be part of next year’s playing squad. (Falkirk Herald)
