Peterhead FC is delighted to announce the signing of defender Josh Kerr.

The former Airdrieonians, Cove Rangers and Stirling Albion centre-back joins the club for the remainder of the season.

Speaking on the new signing, Co-Manager Jordon Brown said: “It’s brilliant to be able to add Josh to the group at a key stage of the season for us. He comes with a really good pedigree and adds more experience in an important area of the pitch where we have been light on options at times. There is no hiding from the fact we have conceded too many goals and adding Josh’s League One experience to this can help the guys who are already getting stronger. Being versatile is also a strong attribute, especially when we have been pretty fluid in the shape we have adopted. January is notoriously difficult to add the quality and improvements that we want so this one is a great start, he has been on our radar for a while now and Jamie has played an important role in keeping in touch. Josh chose a different career path in the summer which seen him not play for the first months of this season but he is hungry and excited to get back involved and we are delighted he has chosen ourselves. At 27, he is a great age to hit his peak and all going well he will train this week and be in the squad for Cove on Saturday”.
