Falkirk have announced the signing of defender Scott Harrison from Hartlepool United.
The Sunderland Academy graduate has signed a two year deal at The Falkirk Stadium. Harrison has been with Hartlepool United since 2015, making 132 appearances for the Pools.
The 24-year old central defender also spent a short period of time with Bury and will link up with the rest of Paul Hartley’s squad for the start of pre-season training on Wednesday. Speaking about his latest recruit, Paul Hartley, said: “Scott is a real physical, no nonsense defender who adds great steel to our backline.
“He has featured at a good level in England having played most of his professional matches in League Two.
“The signing of Scott probably completes my defensive acquisitions for the season ahead. I think this is an area that we are now looking really strong in.
“Our real focus now is on recruiting both midfielders and attackers and talks with a number of our targets are progressing well. We hope to potentially have further news on this tomorrow and certainly moving into next week ahead of our return to pre-season training.”
