Derek McInnes took over as manager of Hearts after leaving Kilmarnock at the end of the season.

The 53-year-old’s departure marked the end of a successful three-and-a-half-year reign in charge that saw Killie enjoy the highs of promotion and a foray into European competition.

But now it’s up to Stuart Kettlewell to lead the club forward.

Last week, the new Killie manager was confirmed on a two-year contract. He previously led Motherwell.

But there will be more than just big changes in the dugout; the club has also revealed a lot of changes on the pitch.

Kilmarnock has released a squad update following the end of the 2024/25 season, revealing that FIFTEEN players are leaving the club.

Among them are a slew of household names and first-team regulars.

Kyle Vassell, club captain, is leaving after 2.5 years with Killie.

The club says they are in talks with a number of players, and with the transfer window open, fans can expect updates in due course.
