McGhee to land defender on free transfer
Sky Sports understands Bristol Rovers are closing in on the signing of former Dundee United defender Garry Kenneth.
Kenneth is available on a free transfer after seeing out his contract at Tannadice earlier this summer.
The 25-year-old came through the ranks at United and made over 150 appearances for the Terrors during his time on Tayside.
A number of clubs have been trailing Kenneth, but it appears Rovers are poised to secure his signature.
Rovers boss Mark McGhee is a big fan of the central defender and sees the player as a key addition to his plans as he looks to mount a bid for promotion next season.
