From Sky Sports Today....
Inverness Caledonian Thistle are closing on a deal for Gillingham striker Dean McDonald.
The SPL club are hoping to sign McDonald on a two-year contract, just 12 months after the player joined Gillingham from Ipswich Town.
He weighed in with six goals in 30 appearances for the Gills, but Inverness boss Charlie Christie feels the 21-year-old is capable of having a better impact in Scotland.
"We met Dean for talks and were greatly impressed by how he spoke," Christie told the Daily Record.
"We asked him if he regarded this as a step up and he said he viewed it as two steps up from Gillingham.
"I've had very good reports from people who know him, but he felt he didn't figure in Gillingham's system and style.
"Director of football Graeme Bennett is working to finalise an agreement with Dean's club and I'm just waiting for the call now to say it's done."
Inverness are also due to hand pre-season trials to Dominique Taboga, of Austrian club SV Kaptenberg, and Admira Wacker's Benedict Bauer.
Christie added: "We'll take one or both with us to Italy depending on how they show up next season.
"They are keen to play in Scotland and know the size and structure of our club. Their CVs are impressive, but I need to see them play."
