He will partner Gregor Buchanan at the heart of the Bairns defence which will also be supplemented further within the next 24 hours.

It's expected a right-back will follow Durnan in signing a deal with the Bairns to join the 26-year-old and Buchanan alongside Paul Dixon in the defensive protection for Cammy Bell.

Durnan becomes Falkirk's seventh new signing of the summer, with Dixon also returning after extending his short-term deal.

Falkirk have begun pre-season training at Stirling University and spent this morning fitness testing after an introductory meeting and training session yesterday.
