Dunfermline have signed Kallum Higginbotham from Kilmarnock on a one-year deal.

The 27-year-old was among a group of contracted players who were told by Killie manager Lee Clark to find new clubs immediately after their play-off triumph over Falkirk last season. Only Conrad Balatoni has yet to sign elsewhere.

The former Huddersfield, Motherwell and Partick Thistle forward signed a two-year deal with Kilmarnock after moving to Rugby Park in 2015 where he scored five goals in 27 appearances.

However, he has now dropped down a division to sign with the League One champions and Pars boss Allan Johnston said he was thrilled with the move.

"I'm delighted to have signed Kallum, he is a quality player and someone I've admired for a long time," he told the club's official website.
