Dunfermline Athletic have signed Chris Higgins after the defender left relegated Clyde.

The 23-year-old, who became a first-team regular after joining Clyde from Motherwell in 2005, has signed a two-year contract with the Pars.

Higgins becomes their second summer signing, defender Andy Dowie having arrived after leaving Ross County.

Former Hibernian winger Kevin Harper and ex-Rangers youth goalkeeper Callum Reidford were among the departures.

Dunfermline had already announced that long-serving defenders Greg Shields, Scott Wilson and Scott Thomson were leaving East End Park.

Stuart Dearden and Iain Williamson were also not offered new contracts.

Greg Ross agreed a new contract along with youth players Paul Willis, Lee Graham, Ryan Thomson, Jordan White, Harry McGregor and Simon Wiles.
