Ross Kavanagh was among three exits from Sauchie before the Reds’ visit to Pumpherston on Saturday.

The striker was confirmed to be leaving Beechwood for Camelon Juniors on a pre-contract agreement.

Kavanagh said: “I just want to say how grateful I am to have been part of the club and meet everyone involved.

“The management team, my teammates, everyone behind the scenes and the fans. Thanks for everything.

“It’s been a really difficult decision to move on from Sauchie and everyone will be missed.

“I wish the club nothing but success and I will hold on to the great memories we have shared over the years.

“Thank you again and I’ll see you around.”

Kavanagh’s last goals for the club would be his brace against Jeanfield during the 2-5 defeat in January.

Overall, he scored more than 100 goals during his spell over three and a half years.

Sauchie’s social media announced his departure, looking back on his time in red and wishing him well for the future.

“Undoubtedly, his finest moment for the club would be during a 5-0 victory over Jeanfield Swifts, where he would help himself to four goals.

“We would like to thank Ross for his efforts, memories and goals in a Sauchie jersey and wish him all the best for the future.”

Additionally, Lucas Williamson and Rhys Caves will also be moving on to Camelon Juniors immediately.
