Notts sign keeper Roos from Italian club Triestina

Kelle Roos spent two seasons with Aberdeen before relocating his career to Italy

Notts County have signed former Derby County goalkeeper Kelle Roos on a free transfer from Italian third tier side Triestina.

The 33-year-old helped Triestina stay in Serie C after coming through a two-legged relegation 'play-out' against a Caldiero Terme side that finished three places and six points behind them in the table.

Roos featured 41 times for the Italian club in all competitions in his only season in at the Stadio Nereo Rocco after moving there from Scottish Premiership side Aberdeen.

His move to Meadow Lane on a two-year deal sees him return to League Two after eight years, having last featured in England's fourth tier with Port Vale during a loan stint from the Rams in 2017.

The former PSV Eindhoven youth player spent more than eight years with Derby, where he featured 89 times across all competitions.

Roos arrives at Notts as a replacement for goalkeeper Alex Bass, who left the Magpies in June to join League One side Peterborough United.

Notts director of football Roberto Gagliardi described Roos as a "an experienced and dominant presence" who will be "comfortable playing out from the back."

"I've known Kelle for a long time and have always admired his attributes and professionalism," Gagliardi told the club website.
