The club is pleased to announce the loan signing of forward Kieran Mitchell from cinch Championship side Raith Rovers until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old signed for the Stark Park’s club in June of 2021, following experience in youth football with Hearts and Elite Fifa FA.

Kieran enjoyed a successful loan spell at Lowland League side Bo’ness United last season, scoring five goals in nine appearances under former Rose manager Max Christie.

The forward has made seven appearance for Rovers so this season, and registered an assist in his team’s 6-0 win over Peterhead in the Premier Sports Cup.

Rose gaffer Robbie Horn said: "We have been chasing Kieran for a while now but for a couple of reasons the loan hasn't happened until today. We are grateful to Ian and all at Raith for allowing the loan to go through.

"Kieran stood out for me when we played against Bo'ness last season where he had a successful loan period. He's been in and around the first team at Raith this season too.

"He's quick, hard working, can play as a striker or wide and scores goals. I'm delighted to get him on board and I'm sure he will do well."

Welcome to the Rose, Kieran!
