MIDDLESBROUGH youngster Rumarn Burrell has joined Scottish Championship club Kilmarnock on a season-long loan.
The 20-year-old forward scored four goals in 15 appearances for Boro’s Under-23 side last season and has also had loan spells at Bradford and Grimsby.
His Boro team-mate Zach Hemming is also on loan at Kilmarnock, who play in the Scottish second tier.
Kilmarnock manager Tommy Wright said: “He’s a young striker and Paul Stephenson (assistant manager) brought him to my attention. We’ve watched him and had good reports about him.
"He’s quick, strong and decent in front of goal and will stretch teams as well and he should be fine to be added to the squad for Monday’s game (against Ayr United).”
