Sean made the temporary switch to Maryhill at the start of October and has made six substitute appearances as a Jag. We wish Sean all the very best for the future.<\/p>\n<p>We are pleased to welcome Ricco Diack and Thomas Horn back to Glasgow from their respective loan spells in League 1. Thomas has been with Peterhead where he featured nine times, including one start, while Ricco has been performing strongly for Tam O\u2019Ware\u2019s Kelty Hearts where he has racked up eight goals in 17 appearances in all competitions.<\/p>\n<p>Zander MacKenzie\u2019s time at Queen of the South has been extended until the end of the season after a successful start to the versatile midfielder\u2019s stay in Dumfries. Zander has featured 13 times thus far for Peter Murphy\u2019s side who sit third in League 1 after 19 games.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Falconer will remain with Linlithgow Rose for the remainder of the season as part of our Cooperation Agreement with the Lowland League club. The midfielder has made 11 appearances and one start for them so far this term.<\/p>\n<p>Nick Lockhart, who joined the Rosey Posey alongside Falconer, has now returned to The Wyre Stadium at Firhill.<\/p>\n<p>Talks are ongoing to extend Jamie Low\u2019s loan spell with Glenafton Athletic. Jamie has so far made five appearances during his time at Loch Park, starting three matches as he seeks to enhance his development with regular senior gametime.<\/p>\n<p>Goalkeeper Luis Cameron\u2019s loan spell at Drumchapel United has come to an end, however, discussions to agree an extension have begun. Cameron has been a mainstay for the Drum this season with 21 appearances and six clean sheets to his name.<\/p>\n<p>We look forward to welcoming our returnees back to the squad and will continue to support the players who are out earning valuable experience elsewhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Friday 2nd January, 2026 at 5:59pm As the January transfer window gets underway, we are able to provide&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":348938,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[218,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-348937","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-sports","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348937","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348937"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348937\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/348938"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348937"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348937"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348937"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
