Former Dundee United man, Dave Richards is set to join Kilmarnock on a free to ease worries between the sticks.
Kilmarnock are very close to agreeing a deal to sign Dave Richards after Max Stryjek picked up an injury blow just ahead of the International break.
Neil McCann is eager to add a goalkeeper to compete with Callum Ferrie who made his Premiership debut in a 1-1 draw with Hearts right before the international break.
The experienced shot-stopper departed fellow Premiership side Dundee United during the summer following a two-year stint at Tannadice.
The 32-year-old has played one game all season which came back in August for national league side, Kidderminster Harriers in a 3-0 defeat to Hornchurch as well as spending some of the season training with EFL side, Port Vale.
The Welsh shot-stopper has also had spells with Cardiff City, Crewe Alexsandra, Llanelli and St Johnstone earlier in his career.
Richards was offered a new deal with Jim Goodwin’s side, which was turned down as the former Dundee United man travels up to Scotland this afternoon which will see Richards in contention for their game with Rangers in 9 days time.
