Kilmarnock complete Conor McAleny loan signing

He made three first-team appearances for Everton and had loan spells at Scunthorpe, Brentford, Cardiff, Charlton, Wigan and Oxford.

Meanwhile, Kilmarnock have announced their intention to appeal against Kris Boyd's Pittodrie red card.

The striker was sent off for serious foul play by referee Nick Walsh in the 80th minute of Saturday's goalless draw following a late sliding tackle on Aberdeen captain Graeme Shinnie.

A fast-track hearing is set to be held before Killie's Ladbrokes Premiership clash with Hearts on Friday night.
