Kilmarnock have named former Hearts boss Gary Locke as their new assistant manager.

The move comes after the recent departure of Sandy Clark, who is now No 2 to Darren Young at Albion Rovers.

Locke is a former Killie player and returns to Rugby Park to work alongside manager Allan Johnston.

Chairman Michael Johnston told STV: "Gary was a very popular figure and a great leader in the dressing room during his seven years as a player with Kilmarnock.

"Those qualities, together with his recent management experience in the Premiership, made him our principal target for the post of assistant manager.”
