Kyle Lafferty to Linfield transfer theory floated after former Rangers star's shock Kilmarnock exit

Kyle Lafferty has been tipped for a move to Linfield after his shock exit from Kilmarnock.

The Northern Ireland legend left Rugby Park on deadline day due to a “disciplinary matter,” with boss Derek McInnes admitting it wasn't something he wanted to happen. Lafferty had recently completed a ten-match ban after being found guilty of using sectarian language in a video that emerged on social media last year.

McInnes said he's now light on strikers after Oli Shaw signed for Barnsley, and would have liked to have kept Lafferty, but explained that it was a conversation between the player and the Killie board that led to the decision and that he had to now move on from it. Lafferty is now a free agent and is on the lookout for his 15th club of a much travelled career that started out in England with Burnley 18 years ago.
