Notts County defender Austin McCann will leave the club at the end of the season after signing a pre-contract agreement with Dunfermline Athletic.

The 28-year-old will officially become a Pars player on July 1 when his Meadow Lane contract expires.

County's manager Ian McParland told the club's official website: "With Paul Mayo and Stephen Hunt in contract for next season, who can both play at left-back, it would have been difficult to assure Austin of a regular first-team place.

"He's been a model professional since I've been with the club and, when he does move on, we wish him every success."

McCann, who played for Airdrie, Hearts and Clyde earlier in his career, has made 68 appearances for Notts following his transfer from Boston United in the summer of 2006.
