St Mirren have signed striker Sam Parkin on a one-year contract.

The 31-year-old has joined the Buddies after a short spell at Queen of the South. He left SPL side St Johnstone in January.

The Paisley side’s boss Danny Lennon described the capture of the towering forward as "a great piece of business" as he builds for the new season.

Lennon said: "We have known for some time exactly where we want to strengthen our squad in order to continue our journey of progression at St Mirren.

"We have a tight budget and a small squad compared with many of our rivals in the SPL so every player in that squad has a vital role to play.

"We have had our eye on Sam for a while and know exactly the qualities he will bring.

"He will add a presence in the box for us and provide us with options in the front line. Not only does he have an eye for goal, but he links play very well.

"That's another piece of the jigsaw in place and represents a great piece of business for the club.

"I am delighted to have Sam on board and wish him every success in his Saints career."
