Kilmarnock loan Republic of Ireland international Colin Doyle

Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock have signed Republic of Ireland international Colin Doyle on loan from Heart of Midlothian.

The 35 year old has joined Killie until January to add to the goalkeeping options at Rugby Park after Jake Eastwood suffered an injury against Hibernian.

“I’m really pleased to join Kilmarnock and I’m excited by the opportunity to play football again,” Doyle said, speaking to the club’s website.

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

Kilmarnock’s next game is against St Johnstone on Saturday in the Scottish Premiership (kick-off 3pm).
