Kilmarnock signs Belgian striker van Tornhout

Kilmarnock have secured the services of Belgian striker Dieter van Tornhout from Cypriot club Nea Salamina.

The 26-year old has signed an 18-month contract with Killie and manager Kenny Shiels is thrilled to have him at his disposal.

"We've signed Dieter, he's 6ft 2ins, he holds the ball well andwill connect the top end of the pitch for us," he said.

"He moves well with a decent understanding of the game. He's a big lad so he'll offer us a different style.

"We've become a little bit predictable at times so he'll give us variety in attack.

"He has played for Roda JC and Sparta Rotterdam in Holland and I was in Europe a few weeks ago watching him play in the Cypriot League."
