Brian Schwake joins Greenock Morton on loan.
Goalkeeper Brian Schwake has joined Championship side Greenock Morton on-loan for the 2022/23 season.
The young ‘keeper will join up with Dougie Imrie at Cappielow in what will be his third loan spell since joining the Lions, with the club having an option to recall the stopper in January.
Having played at Linlithgow Rose in the East of Scotland league in the 2020/21 season, the American joined Edinburgh City last season, helping the side clinch promotion to League 1 via the play-offs, putting in a number of eye-catching performances over the campaign, earning himself a place in the SPFL League 2 Team of the Year.
Manager David Martindale said: “I was keen to ensure Brian got back out on loan at Championship level this season in order to help continue his own development up the leagues.
“He enjoyed good success at Edinburgh City last season and it was great welcome him back with a promotion under his belt and a well deserved place in the Team of the Year.
“Going in to the Championship will be a step up and offer Brian a good challenge next season but I’ve no doubt he’ll thrive at Morton and come back to us at the end of the season, ready to challenge for his place in the first-team at Livingston.
“Both Stuart Garden and Tony Caig speak really highly of Brian and Dougie Imrie was well aware of what he could offer from his time here too so it was a good fit to get Brian out to Morton for ourselves, Morton and Brian himself.”
Good luck Brian!
