ROSS COUNTY have signed Carl Tremarco following his release by Highland rivals Inverness.
The 34-year-old full-back crosses the Kessock Bridge after seven years at the Caledonian Stadium.
Tremarco, who helped Inverness to Scottish Cup glory in 2015, has signed a one-year contract with the Scottish Premiership club.
"Carl has great experience in the game. He has played at some very good levels and everybody knows his talents," said County manager Stuart Kettlewell.
"As well as being a player here, Carl will be able to use his experience in helping to develop our youngsters including Josh Reid who plays in a similar position and Carl will be a wise, older head in the camp.
"It's no secret we were looking to strengthen in the full-back areas and we feel we have now done that and managed to bring in the right amount of quality and experience going in to the new season."
Tremarco is the fifth new arrival at County since the end of the season, following Regan Charles-Cook, Alex Iacovitti, Connor Randall and Stephen Kelly, who is on loan from Rangers, through the door at Victoria Park.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
