The defender says the prospect of European football and joining a team on the rise was a key factor in signing for the club
Robbie Deas has heard plenty of chatter about team-mates getting to experience European football - and he reckons the potential to get that chance was a key factor in signing with Kilmarnock .
Deas arrived from Inverness Caley Thistle and heard plenty about the Highlanders’ battle with Romanian outfit Astra Giurgui nine years ago. He said: “One of the main reasons I signed at this club is that I knew the ambitions. To play in the Premiership was one of my goals and another was to play in Europe. Hopefully, I can fulfil that towards the end of this season.
“They used to tell me stories all of the time about winning the Scottish Cup and playing in Europe. Some of the coaches were still there. Aaron Doran as a player.He added: “It’s just one of these things not many people can say and I think it should be everyone’s dream to play in Europe.
