It’s been a busy weekend in the Scottish Premiership with one manager’s time in charge coming to an end. Following a home defeat to Aberdeen, Rangers bid farewell to Michael Beale and will now begin the hunt for his replacement.
As the Ibrox side start the interview process, Hearts were able to celebrate a much needed away win as they beat Ross County 1-0 thanks to a second-half goal from Alan Forrest. Hibs, on the other hand, were held to a 0-0 draw at Easter Road against Espirito FC. Following the seventh matchday in the Scottish Premiership, here is the latest news from Hibs’ and Hearts’ league rivals.
Despite interest from Gillingham, Forest Green Rovers, and Wrexham, Queen’s Park are ready to sign former Motherwell midfielder Stuart McKinstry, who was released by Leeds United this summer (The Daily Record).
The Scotland under-21 international is expected to sign with the Spiders for the remainder of the campaign. He has been a free agent since leaving Leeds United in the summer, but the former Motherwell academy midfielder is hopeful of moving back to Scotland despite the aforementioned clubs in the English Football Leagues showing considerable interest in him.
For £400,000, Leeds acquired McKinstry, who later played in the Premier League before returning to Motherwell on loan. But soon after Stuart Kettlewell joined and began working with wingers, he lost favor.
The beloved Celtic supporter joined Nuno Espirito Santo’s team for £25 million, but the 24-year-old was kept out of the starting lineup when the club met its foreign player limit for the forthcoming season. Now, until he is selected back into the first team in January, he is only qualified to play in AFC Champions League and Club World Cup matches.
Tottenham is apparently considering a move for the winger, and it has now been stated that the player’s agent is in talks with the team about terminating his contract.
