St Johnstone have signed English midfielder Nick McKoy until the end of the year.

The 21-year-old former Cardiff and MK Dons player impressed on trial at McDiarmid Park earlier this year, playing a friendly against East Fife.

And now he has been given a short-term deal which could lead to a longer contract.

McKoy, who also spent a four-month loan period at Torquay in 2007, arrives in Perth as a free agent.
