Scottish Premiership switch for Irish goalkeeper Danny Rogers

The 26-year-old, who recently departed Aberdeen, has signed a one-year contract with Kilmarnock.

KILMARNOCK HAVE ANNOUNCED the signing of Danny Rogers on a one-year deal.

The Irish goalkeeper joins the club after he was recently released by fellow Scottish Premiership outfit Aberdeen.

“I’m delighted to join Killie and as soon as the opportunity came up, I knew it was where I wanted to be,” said Rogers, who links up with compatriots Gary Dicker and Alan Power at Rugby Park. “It’s a big club with big ambitions and I’m delighted to be part of that.”

Rogers began his career at Aberdeen but spent the majority of his time away from the club on loan. In addition to the three appearances he made for the Dons, he played 146 times during spells at Greenock Morton, St Mirren, Falkirk, Dumbarton and Airdrieonians.

The 26-year-old, who was a Republic of Ireland U21 international, was called up to the senior squad in October 2016 to provide back-up to Darren Randolph for the World Cup qualifying wins against Georgia and Moldova.

Kilmarnock, who finished in eighth place for the curtailed 2019-20 campaign, will begin the new season away to Hibernian on Saturday.
