Inverness Caledonian Thistle young prospect Calum MacKay will stay on loan at Highland League club Nairn County until the end of the season.

The striker, who joined Nairn County on loan in October, will remain at Station Park for the remainder of the campaign.

The 18-year-old was a regular member of the Caley Jags first team squad last season amid their extensive injury list, making three senior appearances across the League Cup and Challenge Cup while also spending a number of other matches as an unused substitute under former head coach Billy Dodds.

MacKay is the brother of former Caley Thistle star Daniel MacKay, who is currently on loan at Premiership outfit Livingston from parent club Hibernian.

MacKay made his Inverness first team debut against Motherwell in the last-16 of the League Cup last season.

He also featured for Caley Thistle in SPFL Trust Trophy matches against Brechin City and Hamilton Academical.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle have confirmed two of their players will remain on loan until the end of the season.

Defenders Sam Nixon and Jack Walker have had their deals extended at Highland League club Forres Mechanics until the end of the campaign.

The duo's original loan deals expired yesterday, but the two clubs have come to an agreement for the pair to continue their stay at Mosset Park.

Nixon and Walker, along with Calum Macleod, were signed as modern apprentices at Inverness Caledonian Thistle at the beginning of the season.

Caley Thistle goalkeeper Corey Patterson, who was on loan at Forres Mechanics earlier this season, is now on loan at Inverness club Clachnacuddin.

Clachnacuddin have announced they have signed goalkeeper Danny Gillan from Highland League rivals Brora Rangers.

The club have confirmed Gillan will go straight into the match squad for tomorrow's clash against Turriff United at Grant Street Park.

Ross County have also confirmed that a number of their players will remain at Highland League and League Two clubs this season.

They include Zach Macphee at Clachnacuddin, Andrew Macleod and George Robesten at Nairn County, Logan Ross at Brora Rangers and Conall Ewan at Elgin City.
