Jim Gannon hopes to bring up to six new players to Fir Park after being confirmed as Mark McGhee's successor as manager of Motherwell.

The 40-year-old takes on the post just two months after being axed by Stockport County.

After taking on the role, Gannon said: "I'm delighted to be here as the new manager. It's a fantastic challenge and a fantastic opportunity and I look forward to working in the SPL.

"We've got our work cut out because we have to add players quickly, we've got to get them playing as a team and we've got to get them playing good football.

"We've already talked about five or six new signings. I have to see for myself what talent I have here at the club and what structure is in place.

"At the moment I'm already speaking to players and to agents and we're looking forward to making a few additions shortly."
