The 26-year-old has been out of contract after leaving Scottish Premiership side Hibernian at the end of last season.

 

A Burundi international, Bigirimana started out at Coventry City before making the move to the North East with Newcastle.

 

He made his Premier League debut in September 2012, coming on as a sub in a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa and netted his first goal against Wigan Athletic.

 

A brief loan at Glasgow Rangers was followed by a return to Coventry where, after an initial loan spell, he re-joined permanently in August 2016.

 

Just under a year later, Bigirimana signed a two-year deal with Scottish Premiership club Motherwell where he went on to make just over 50 appearances in all competitions and helped them reach two cup finals.

 

His most recent stint at Hibs, who he joined in January this year, was short-lived and Bigirimana departed Easter Road in May.

 

The midfielder has spent the last few weeks training with the Moors.
