Career

[edit]

Born in Paisley, McKenna started his career at St Mirren. On 7 January 2006 he joined Cowdenbeath on loan,[1] scoring 11 goals in a half season spell which saw him play a large role in the Blue Brazil winning their first league title in 67 years. Oddly enough he received another league championship medal that season from St Mirren who won the First Division. In June 2007, McKenna moved to Stirling Albion.[2] During his time at Stirling he was part of the squad that won the 2009–10 Scottish Second Division.

After playing over 100 games for Stirling, he then moved to Brechin City at the end of the 2009–10 season.[3] During three seasons at Brechin, he once again went on to play over 100 games for the club. In 2013, he was released by Brechin City and signed for Stranraer ahead of the 2013–14 season.[4]

Mckenna joined East Stirlingshire in 2014 where he spent two seasons, before signing for Annan Athletic in June 2016.[5] After one season with Annan, McKenna signed for Scottish Juniors club Beith Juniors.[6]

On 12 January 2018, McKenna join Renfrew on a season loan until 11 February 2018.[7][non-primary source needed]
