Stenhousemuir Football Club are delighted to announce the signing of Kane Ritchie-Hosler from Dunfermline Athletic on loan until the end of the season.
The 23-year-old wide midfielder joins the Warriors after an impressive spell with Dunfermline, where he has made 95 appearances across League One and the Championship.
Kane began his career at Manchester City before moving to Rangers, where he featured prominently in their youth sides, including in European competition. He later joined Dunfermline on loan, earning a permanent move after a successful six-month spell.
A versatile and dynamic player, Kane is capable of operating as a winger, wing-back, or central midfielder, with right wing being his most natural position.
Known for his pace, energy, and ability to beat defenders in wide areas, he also brings a strong work ethic and positive attitude to the squad.
Manager Gary Naysmith said: “I am delighted that we have been able to add Kane to our squad for the remainder of the season and I must say a huge thank you to our Board of Directors for their backing which has allowed this loan deal to take place.
“Kane, who is still only 23, has all the attributes that we look for in our wide players. He has pace, he can create, he likes to take defenders on in 1v1 situations and he also has an eye for goal which is really important.
“Kane is also able to play in one or two other positions in different formations and his versatility is an added bonus.
“Between the Championship & League One Kane has made nearly 100 appearances for Dunfermline and i am sure that his signing will give everyone involved with the club a real boost for the run in.
“He will train with the group this week and will be available for our next league match v Montrose”.
Chairman Dan Wharton added: “This is another important signing for the club and shows our continued ambition going forward.
“Kane has a strong background and a proven record in League One and played at Championship level. We believe he will excite our supporters and strengthen the squad.
“I would like to thank everyone involved in bringing this deal together and welcome Kane to Stenhousemuir.”
Everyone at Stenhousemuir Football Club would like to welcome Kane to the club and wish him every success in a Warriors shirt.
