Cillian Sheridan joins APOEL Nicosia

Republic of Ireland international Cillian Sheridan has agreed to join Cypriot outfit APOEL Nicosia from Kilmarnock.

The 24-year-old, who started his career in Scotland with Celtic, has previously represented CSKA Sofia in Bulgaria, spending two seasons at the club.

The striker scored 10 goals for Kilmarnock last season, but APOEL boss Paulo Sergio, formerly of Hearts, has moved to acquire his signature ahead of the new season.

Sheridan moved to Rugby Park at the start of last season.
