Liam Donnelly Becomes St.Mirren’s Fifth Signing of the Summer
St.Mirren have today announced the signing of Northern Irish international Liam Donnelly on a free transfer, following the expiry of his contract at Kilmarnock after a three-year spell. The combative midfielder, who can also play right-back or centre-back, is the fifth signing for St.Mirren this summer already, with Roland Idowu, Killian Phillips, Richard King and Jayden Richardson in the door also. Donnelly has put pen to paper on a two year stay in Paisley, and will be reunited with Buddies manager Stephen Robinson after the pair worked together at Motherwell, who spoke fondly of his latest recruit. “I’ve worked with Liam before and he’s a really competitive player. “Technically, he’s very good as well and he gives us options in numerous positions. Liam can play anywhere in the back three, he can play at full-back in a four, or he can play as a six or an eight in midfield as well. “He’s someone we feel will bring real competition to the squad. We run with a small squad so Liam’s versatility could be invaluable through the season.” The new signing also spoke on his delight to be playing at the SMISA Stadium next season. “I know the manager well and I have seen the success of the club in the past few years. I want to be a part of that and hopefully we can do similar this season. “I just need to focus on getting my foot in the door and making sure I’m doing well enough to be in the manager’s thoughts for the starting eleven.”
