Two New European Additions to Ayrshire's Finest...

Last updated : 14 January 2011 By Killie Kingdom

Having a gaffer like Mixu Paatelainen seems to be the perfect gift for Kilmarnock, as not only have the blue and whites had one the best seasons ever so far in more than a decade but additiionally Mixu has many contacts within Europe to bring fresh talent to Rugby Park.

Another two Europeans have signed for the best footballing team in West, first of all is Frenchman Benjamin Laurant.  The 24 year old midfielder has signed a 2 and half year deal at the Threatre. His previous club was Le Havre in France.

Next up is Swede Billy Berntsson who has also signed a two and half year deal.  The 27 year old can play in defence either as a left or right back.

Kilmarnock-Mad would like to welcome both Billy and Benjamin a warm welcome to Ayrshire and hope that they enjoy their time on the hallowed turf at Rugby Park.
