A very hard-working and strong player who adds much-needed bite to the ICT midfield. Began his playing career at Pittodrie with Aberdeen and he eventually moved to Inverness, signing from Forfar Athletic.

He's turned out to be a tremendous signing for the club and his experience is vital in the centre of midfield. Doesn't score maybe as many goals as he should but when he does they are normally out of the top drawer.

Signed a three-year deal towards the end of 2007-08. Made his 300th appearance for the club in the 1-0 win over Raith Rovers down at Starks Park on Tuesday, 13th October 2009.

Now into his 10th season with the club he played a significant part in Caley Thistle's title-winning run and is still one of the most dedicated players in the squad. Once again a stalwart in the centre of midfield and he scored a fantastic goal against Dundee United at Tannadice at the start of the season. Players like Russell are valuable at any club for their experience and determination during matches.
