Ballymena United have signed striker Richard Gibson from rivals Coleraine in a one-year deal.

United manager Roy Walker believes Gibson, who was released by the Bannsiders, will bring a "high degree of physicality" to his team.

Michael Halliday is also a target for Walker after his departure from Glentoran earlier this week.

Kevin Kelbie is leaving Ballymena and Glenavon have offered terms to the Scottish striker.

The 25-year-old was not offered a new contract with the Sky Blues after holding talks with Walker.
