We are absolutely delighted to welcome back Christian Nade to the club from Annan Athletic.

Jimmy Kirkwood initially signed former French Under-21 striker Christian for Troon in July 2018, and he was rewarded with 14 goals in 29 appearances, which is the most prolific spell of his career to date. Former Sheffield United star Christian was a very popular figure amongst the supporters, who I am sure will be delighted at his ambitious signing and welcome his return to Portland Park.

Nade signed for Annan Athletic on the last day of the January transfer window in 2019, but with the exciting move to the new West of Scotland Football League set-up he is returning to add some class to our front line. With his former Hearts team-mate Ryan Stevenson, Dean Fulton, and Ryan Nisbet already signed up for next season, we are confident that gives us one of the best forward lines in the league.

Welcome back, Christian!
