Finland international joins on loan
Kilmarnock have completed the signing of Alexei Eremenko on a season-long loan from Metalist Kharkiv.
The 27-year-old midfielder, who can play in a number of roles, moves from the Ukraine and joins up with Finnish compatriot Mixu Paatelainen at Rugby Park.
Eremenko has been capped more than 40 times by Finland and will bring a wealth of experience to Killie, having played for clubs such as HJK Helsinki and Lecce in the past.
He spent much of last season on loan at FF Jaro in Finland but has now opted to move to the SPL on loan.
Manager Paatelainen has used his contacts back home to bring Eremenko to Kilmarnock and will be hoping he makes a positive impact.
