Yoann Arquin: striker leaves Notts County to join Ross County

Ross County have completed the signing of Yoann Arquin after the 25-year-old Martinique international striker was allowed to leave Notts County.

Arquin has signed a one-year contract with the Scottish Premiership club.

But the English League One club announced that Arquin, signed from Hereford United in summer 2012, had moved "on a free transfer".

Derry took over in November after the departure of Chris Kiwomya and Mick Jones.

Born in Le Havre, France, the striker began his career with Nancy before spells with Quimper, Paris Saint-Germain, where he played for their B side, and Red Star.

Arquin played 65 times for Notts County, scoring 13 goals, four coming in 19 appearances this season, but he has not played since a 16 November defeat by Wolves.

He becomes Ross County manager Derek Adams' fifth addition during the January transfer window.

Fellow striker while and fellow midfielder Filip Kiss from Cardiff City.

Meanwhile, defender Evangelos Oikonomou has returned to Victoria Park after a spell back in Greece with Veria.
