St Johnstone complete Connor McLennan transfer as Aberdeen forward joins on loan

St Johnstone complete Connor McLennan transfer as Aberdeen forward joins on loan

St Johnstone have announced the signing of Connor McLennan from Aberdeen.

The 22-year-old moves to McDiarmid Park on a season-long loan deal and can fill a variety of positions in attacking areas.

McLennan will join in training tomorrow ahead of St Mirren visiting Perth on Saturday.

He said: "It's great to get this move over the line.

"My aim is to get into the manager's first team plans as soon as possible and play a part in helping us win as many games as we can. 

"I will need to show the manager and the coaching staff what I can do and I will work hard in training every day.

"I know there are some excellent players at St Johnstone and I will need to perform to a high standard to be involved in games.

"But I feel I can make a positive impact and that's what I want to do.

"Andy Considine has spoken very highly of the set-up at St Johnstone and that the dressing-room has a high level of professionalism and lots of quality.   

"They are also a good bunch of lads and I'm looking forward to meeting them and training with them."
