Inverness Caledonian Thistle head coach believes player can become a success with Dunfermline Athletic next season.
SCOTT Kellacher believes Keith Bray can be a success in the Championship as he prepares for life after Caley Thistle with Dunfermline Athletic.
Bray signed for the Pars back in February for an undisclosed fee, but was loaned back to Inverness for the remainder of the campaign.
The 19-year-old winger was one of the star performers for Inverness this season, helping them avoid relegation from League One as they finished the season with a 15-point deduction.
He was the top scorer at Inverness this season with 11 goals, which included a hat-trick in the 3-0 win against Cove Rangers at the beginning of April.
He played his final game for Inverness in the 2-0 win against Montrose last weekend as they finished seven points above the relegation zone, despite a 15-point deduction for going into administration.
Bray, who is from Tong in the Western Isles, came through the Inverness Caledonian Thistle youth academy on a dual registration with Stornoway Athletic, before signing a professional contract in 2022.
Kellacher praised Bray for everything that he had done at Inverness and predicts he can make it a higher level with Dunfermline next season.
He said: "Keith has been fantastic, in terms of his attitude and everything he's given to this team. I am delighted he got his move.
"I've said in the past he's been like Graeme Shinnie when he signed a pre-contract with Aberdeen. He gave everything he got too.
"That's boys who realise what this club has done for them. They gave them the platform, and hopefully Keith goes on to special things.
"He has given everything for the club. His contribution to the team has been fantastic.
"I hope he kicks on - good luck to him.
"He's shown such quality. He just wants to play football. It will be a step up for him, but he's more than capable of playing in the Championship, there is no doubt about it.”
