MK Dons have signed forward Callum Hendry, with the player joining the Dons from Salford City.

Hendry moves from Salford to Milton Keynes for an undisclosed fee and has signed a contract of undisclosed length at Stadium MK.

The 26-year-old is the Dons’ ninth signing ahead of the new season, after the previously confirmed arrivals of Conor Lemonheigh-Evans, Luke Offord, Laurence Maguire, Tommy Leigh, Sam Sherring, Joe Pritchard, Liam Kelly and Tom Carroll.

Hendry had spent two years at Salford, having joined the Ammies from Scottish side St Johnstone in 2022.

Last season, Hendry grabbed 9 goals in 30 appearances, including a hat-trick in an early season win over Tranmere, despite the striker’s season being compromised by injury.

He had scored 14 in 49 in his first season in English football, having exclusively played in Scotland before the move to Salford.

Hendry told the official MK Dons website that he was impressed with the club’s facilities and with what his new boss Mike Williamson was pitching to him as the way he should fit in.

He said, “I came here last season with Salford and I was very impressed with the facilities, it’s a massive club, I’m just looking forward to playing in that stadium, the pitch looks magnificent!

“Mike made that clear, what he wants from me and how he wants to use my energy, I need to be in the right place at the right time and score some goals, that’s my job!”
