Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT'S a summer of change ahead at Kilmarnock following Stuart Kettlewell's arrival as manager. And it looks like the new Rugby Park boss is going to have a VERY different group of players working with him next season. 3 Stuart Kettlewell has taken over as Kilmarnock manager Credit: KILMARNOCK FC 3 Captain Kyle Vassell is leaving the club Credit: Callan Media- Commissioned by The Sun Glasgow 3 Gary Mackay-Steven is also out of contract Credit: Kenny Ramsay Derek McInnes quit Kilmarnock at the end of the season to become the new Hearts manager. The 53-year old's departure brought to an end a successful three-and-a-half year stint in charge that saw Killie enjoy the highs of promotion and a venture into European football. But now, it's Stuart Kettlewell who's tasked with taking things forward at the club. The former Motherwell boss was confirmed the new Killie gaffer last week on a two-year contract. But it certainly won't only be big changes in the dugout, with the club revealing plenty of change on the park as well. Kilmarnock have released their squad update following the conclusion of the 2024/25 season and it reveals that FIFTEEN players are leaving the club. Among them are a whole host of big names and first team regulars. Club captain Kyle Vassell is departing after two-and-a-half years with Killie. Regular starters Danny Armstrong, Liam Donnelly and Joe Wright are also moving on. Bobby Wales departs having already agreed a move to Swansea, while there are also exits for goalkeeper Kieran O'Hara, Innes Cameron, Kyle Magennis and Fraser Murray. Derek McInnes spotted leaving Rugby Park for last time as Kilmarnock fans thank ex-manager Former Scotland international Gary Mackay-Steven is also a free agent. The winger, 34, won three league titles during his time with Celtic between 2017 and 2019. In addition to those 12 names above, three players are leaving Kilmarnock after their loan deals expired. Scotland caps Calvin Ramsay and Stuart Findlay have gone back to Liverpool and Oxford respectively, while Tom Wilson-Brown's temporary spell from Leicester is over. The club say they are in conversations with a number of players and with the transfer window opening, fans should expect updates to follow in due course.

Healey says UK ‘already makes huge contribution' to Nato
The Defence Secretary pointed to the UK's nuclear deterrent, and plans to make a 'bigger contribution' to Nato, as he sidestepped questions about suggestions that the alliance will set a 3.5% of gross domestic product military spending target. The Prime Minister has committed to spend 2.5% of gross domestic product on defence from April 2027, with a goal of increasing that to 3% over the next parliament, a timetable which could stretch to 2034. But Nato secretary-general Mark Rutte is thought to be pushing for allies to commit to spending 3.5% on the military, with a further 1.5% on defence-related measures, as the alliance responds to Russian President Vladimir Putin's actions in Ukraine. Leaders from the alliance will meet in The Hague later this month, with the total 5% spending target by 2035 on the table. Speaking on Tuesday, Mr Healey said: 'As the Prime Minister has said, Britain already makes a huge contribution to Nato. 'We've published a defence review that has Nato at its heart and I'm announcing today the new spending in this Parliament, £4 billion, doubling the amount that we'll put into drones. 'And we'll make a bigger contribution to Nato through that, and £1 billion over this Parliament to develop laser weapons, the first European nation in Nato to have laser weapons on our destroyers and then with our land forces. 'This is Britain leading in Nato, contributing more to Nato, just as we do, for instance, with our nuclear deterrent, the only country with a nuclear deterrent that commits it in full to other Nato nations.' The Prime Minister and Mr Healey have already come under pressure to spell out how the existing 3% goal could be met. Asked if he would be prepared to raise taxes to safeguard the nation's defence, Mr Healey said: 'We will deliver the spending commitments that we've made. I've got no doubt we can do that in the next parliament. 'We're already raising defence spending by £5 billion this year and now it will go up to 2.5% of GDP in just two years' time. 'Britain's never spent that level for 15 years. 'This is a biggest increase in defence spending since the end of the Cold War. The important thing is how we spend it.' We're investing nearly £1 billion into directed energy weapons and more than £4 billion in autonomous systems as part of our major £5 billion investment in UK defence innovation. We're boosting frontline capabilities while creating hundreds of skilled jobs across the country. — Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 (@DefenceHQ) June 3, 2025 Downing Street refused to be drawn on the possibility of an increased spending demand, as the Prime Minister's official spokesman told reporters: 'The UK is already the third-highest spender in Nato in cash terms, behind the United States and Germany. 'We are one of 22 allies of the 32 in Nato that already exceed the 2% of GDP Nato target.' The Strategic Defence Review published earlier this week recommended a greater focus on new technology, including drones and artificial intelligence. The Ministry of Defence announced a £5 billion investment in the 'kit of the future', after the publication of the review on Monday. The funding includes £4 billion for drones and autonomous systems, and an extra £1 billion for lasers to protect British ships and soldiers. In addition to investment in drones and AI, the Government has announced an additional £1 billion for the development of 'directed energy weapons' (DEWs) during the current Parliament. This includes the DragonFire laser scheduled to be fitted to the Royal Navy's Type 45 destroyers from 2027, with a similar system provided for the Army by the end of the decade. DragonFire and other DEWs are intended to provide a lower-cost form of air defence against targets including drones, costing just £10 per shot compared with the thousands of pounds it costs to fire existing weapons.

Liverpool transfer belief behind huge Wirtz bid as Slot eyes next two targets
Mirror Football takes a look at Liverpool's summer transfer window so far in what is expected to be a busy couple of months as boss Arne Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes work away The confetti had barely been cleared from the Anfield pitch after Liverpool 's Premier League title celebrations and the focus was firmly on making sure the trophy will remain there next season. This summer is going to be busy for the Reds if the first few days of the transfer market being open are anything to go by. This will be the window when Arne Slot starts to really put his touch to the team. Not only to make it more his squad, but also to ensure that they can compete on four fronts next season. This is a summer of adding more depth and moving on players who do not fit the criteria or - in the case of Caoimhin Kelleher - need to be guaranteed much more playing time. Those close to the club stress there is not a transfer war chest to be splashed out on but recruitment will be backed by the owners, FSG, and sales. The mantra remains the same. Spend on what they believe is value rather than for the sake of it. That is why there must be huge belief within the club that Florian Wirtz is a sensational footballer with potential to be even better otherwise they would not be submitting eye-watering nine-figure offers. While the signing of Jeremie Frimpong, also from Bayer Leverkusen, in a £29.5m deal is more the deals we have been accustomed to seeing the Reds make. A low - in today's market - release clause being met to get a highly-rated player who is versatile enough to play in different positions, even if pushing Conor Bradley for a right-back starting spot may be the initial aim. It is clear that this is - while being led by sporting director Richard Hughes - the start of Slot putting his touches to the team after his first summer saw the only arrival being Federico Chiesa on a cut-price deal. For all the talk of last season being Slot turning the Reds more orchestral than the heavy metal football of Jurgen Klopp, those within the club felt the changes to the playing style were more subtle than that. Slot worked with what he had got. He shifted Ryan Gravenberch to the No.6 role while the full-backs were not given as much freedom to roam and more control was asked from the front line. It brought a 20th English league title when many expected them to be battling it out for a Champions League spot at best. Yet Slot was still not content. He wants to win the title again but also go further in Europe. The Dutchman knew against PSG that Liverpool struggled with their frantic press and pace with the Reds going through a slight lull at the time they faced the soon-to-be-crowned European kings. That could have been down to his own overreliance on the same players. He was also concerned about how Newcastle 's midfield in the Carabao Cup final were too physical for the Reds but he is not adding muscle to match that. Instead, it appears more pace, flair and creativeness is how Slot is going about it. Wirtz is a deal that is expected to get done given the Reds have elbowed in ahead of Manchester City to ensure they're the destination of choice for the Germany attacking star. Frimpong is done with Trent Alexander-Arnold going to Real Madrid, with £10m banked to end his contract early. Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez is wanted while a striker could be dependent on who leaves this summer. Slot is starting to structure his team with the rock-solid foundation of a Premier League title to build upon, along with Mo Salah 's goals, Virgil van Dijk's defensive prowess and Alisson's steady hands. It is why many across Europe believe Anfield is the place to be at the moment.
