MNL's PatrickCooke caught up with Derry City's latest signing. Kevin Mc Hattie this morning.
Kenny Shiels has unveiled Scottish defender Kevin McHattie as his fifth signing of the summer as the Candystripes gear up for a busy final third of the season. The 25-year old was with Raith Rovers last season having earlier played for Dunfermline, Kilmarnock and Hearts, where he won a Scottish Championship medal in 2015. McHattie is a natural left back, which is an area in which the team needed cover after Jack Doyle returned to Blackburn Rovers in June, but he said he was equally comfortable elsewhere. "That's my regular position but I'm just as happy in the centre of defence or on the left side of midfield so it will be a case of wherever I'm needed." The player admitted he knew little about his new club until recently but that he was looking forward to getting started. "I didn't know a lot other than what Ally (Roy) had told me, but I'm really looking forward to the challenge. The boss has told me we have a hectic schedule coming up with three matches in the space of a week, but that's good because I'm raring to go." Kenny Shiels is hoping McHattie goes straight into the squad for Friday night's game at home to Sligo Rovers.
