Stevie May has signed a new one-year contract with St Johnstone.

The 19-year-old striker rose through the youth ranks at McDiarmid Park and made his debut at the age of 16 against Airdrie United in 2009.

May has only since gone on to play 24 times for the Saints, scoring three times, but was impressive in a loan spell with Third Division champions Alloa Athletic last season.

A 19 goal return in 22 league games, including four in an 8-1 win over Elgin City, helped Paul Hartley's team to the title.
