Scotland full-back Ramsay joins Kilmarnock on loan

Scotland right-back Calvin Ramsay has joined Kilmarnock on loan from Liverpool for the rest of the season.

Ramsay returned to Anfield earlier this month after cutting short a season-long loan at League One club Wigan Athletic.

The 21-year-old came through Aberdeen's academy and made 39 appearances for the Dons before joining Liverpool for £4.2m in June 2022.

Ramsay played in the Champions League in his first season at Anfield and made his Scotland debut in a friendly defeat against Turkey in November 2022.

However injuries have affected his time at Liverpool and the full-back has also had loan spells at Preston and Bolton.

"When the opportunity came up to sign Calvin we jumped at it," said Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes.

"I'd like to thank Liverpool for their co-operation once again on this deal."

The defender was on the brink of the Aberdeen first team under McInnes, whose side are ninth in the Scottish Premiership but just four points behind sixth-placed Hibernian.
