"I am excited by the job and will give it my all. I know Motherwell very well as a club and have long respected what they are all about. They have produced some special talent over the years and done so in an entertaining way.
It's a family club at the heart of the Scottish game and they are doing all the right things to be successful and sustainable. I have inherited a good squad with a proven system for identifying new and young talent.
I want to build on that starting today to ensure we compete for success in the league, cup and Europe. "
