East Kilbride want Darvel boss Mick Kennedy to be their new manager. The Lowland League side are on the lookout for a new gaffer after they parted company with Kevin Rutkiewicz last month, following a disappointing campaign that saw Kilby go from the top of the table before Christmas to seventh spot.
Kilby have handed the reins to development coach and former club kitman Martin Fellowes on an interim basis until the end of the season.
But Lanarkshire Live Sport understands the K-Park club want the man who masterminded a Scottish Cup shock for the ages over Aberdeen this season to lead their charge for promotion to the SPFL next season.
Kennedy is currently leading Darvel’s bid for promotion to the Lowland League, but the Ayrshire side trail Beith Juniors by seven points as they look to defend their West of Scotland Premier Division crown.
