Eamonn Brophy: Striker played last game for Kilmarnock, says Alex Dyer

Brophy has scored four goals in 17 appearances for Kilmarnock this season

Eamonn Brophy has played his last game for Kilmarnock because he "doesn't want to be here" after signing a pre-contract with St Mirren, says manager Alex Dyer.

The two Scottish Premiership clubs are in talks about fast-tracking the Scotland striker's move this month.

Brophy has agreed a three-year deal with St Mirren, which starts in the summer.

"He wants to leave, he wants to go," Dyer said.

"It would be better for him if he goes - that's what he wants to do. I told him it's not up to me now, but the two clubs. Once they figure out the best way to go I can react.

"If he's here, I'll use him in training but probably not the games because he doesn't want to be here. It's as simple as that."

St Mirren manager Jim Goodwin is keen to have Brophy in Paisley as soon as possible, and described the transfer as a "real coup" for the club.

"There was a number of teams monitoring him in Scotland and England - the amount of messages I got from other coaches in the game saying that it was a fantastic signing.

"He wants to to try to come here, score as many goals as possible and get in the mind of [Scotland head coach] Steve Clarke, the national coach, again and hopefully kick on to bigger and better things."

Meanwhile, Dyer revealed Kilmarnock are looking at giving striker Danny Whitehall and goalkeeper Colin Doyle new short-term deals, with talks to take place with Youssuf Mulumbu about extending his stay too.
