Scott Fox: Motherwell sign Bellshill-born goalkeeper on one-year deal

The well travelled player, who has also been on the books of Celtic, East Fife, Queen of the South, Dundee and Partick Thistle, is relishing the prospect of battling Northern Ireland international Trevor Carson for a place between the sticks at Fir Park.

“I’m delighted to have joined Motherwell,” Fox told the MFC website.

“I’ve been training with the team for the past week and settled in quickly, and can’t wait to get started proper.

“I’m here to fight for the right to play.

“Trevor is a tremendous goalkeeper who plays at international level and it’s my job to push him as much as I possibly can.

“It’s an improving side which want to be challenging up the top end of the table and obviously this year there’s European football.

“It’s a great time to join.”

'Well manager Stephen Robinson said: “Scott adds really good experience to the goalkeeping department and will compete for a place with Trevor Carson and PJ Morrison.

“Scott’s attitude has impressed me in the short space of time he’s spent with us so far. He’s a ‘keeper with Premiership experience and will be a strong addition.

“He has also worked with our goalkeeping coach Craig Hinchliffe previously and came with a strong reference from him."
