Greg Kiltie has been confirmed as Kilmarnock's new captain, with manager Neil McCann describing it as a "natural choice".

The 29-year-old was voted the club's player of the year last season after returning from St Mirren 12 months ago.

McCann said the attacking midfielder had "led by example", not just on the pitch but also with "his spirit, his demands and application levels in training".

"There were many who could have put themselves forward for the captaincy," the Kilmarnock boss added.

"But I just feel Kilts is a well-liked guy in the dressing room. It's an armband and a recognition of his importance to the club, but I'm looking for everyone to step up this year."

Meanwhile, former Kilmarnock defender Kirk Broadfoot, who made more than 100 appearances for the club, has been promoted from his role as youth coach to join McCann's backroom team.
