Ex-Wolves man Aaron McCarey heads for Scotland

Former Wolves keeper Aaron McCarey is poised to sign for Scottish Premier League side Ross County.

The 24-year-old was released by Wolves last week after six-and-a-half years at the club.

And reports in Scotland suggest he is set to join the Staggies on a two-year contract.

Irishman McCarey played seven times for Wolves and one was one of six players released last week.

One of those six, Tommy Rowe, has signed for Doncaster Rovers on a three-year deal, while Liam McAlinden is believed to be weighing up a number of offers from League One and League Two clubs.

The others were Bjorn Sigurdarson, Razak Boukari and Zeli Ismail.

McCarey was third choice at Molineux behind Carl Ikeme and Arsenal loanee Emiliano Martinez.

Highland club Ross County were promoted to the SPL for the first time in their short league history in 2012 and won the Scottish League Cup in March this year, beating Hibernian 2-1 at Hampden Park.

County boss Jim McIntyre told Highland News: "We have agreed to bring Aaron to the club on a two-year contract, which will be finalised next week.

"He's a keeper who has played at every level through the ages with Ireland and we feel he brings real potential."
