Ross Callachan leaves Ross County to sign for Premiership rivals Motherwell after contract expires in Dingwall
Former Ross County midfielder Ross Callachan has been confirmed as Motherwell’s latest signing.
The 30-year-old was one of a number of out of contract players in Dingwall this summer, but was in the somewhat different position of not having played last season due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
He was named on the substitutes’ bench towards the end of the campaign, but did not feature.
With his future uncertain, he has been unveiled as the latest arrival at Fir Park, confirming his departure from the Staggies.
Callachan has signed a one-year deal with the option for a further season at Motherwell.
“I’m delighted to have Ross at the club,” Steelmen manager, and County legend, Stuart Kettlewell said.
“He’s been unfortunate over the past year with certain injuries that forced an extended spell on the sidelines, but Ross has recovered well and is ready to kick on this season.
“Ross is an experienced professional especially throughout Scottish football, and we believe he can really add quality to our midfield.”
Callachan himself commented: “I can’t wait to get back onto the pitch.
“Last year was a tough season for myself personally, but my recovery has gone to plan and the opportunity to play for Motherwell was something I simply couldn’t turn down. This feels like the perfect next step in my career.”
