St Mirren have signed Dennis Adeniran after the midfielder impressed on trial.

The former Fulham and Everton ace has agreed a one-year deal in Paisley with an appearance-based option of a second season at the club.

The 25-year-old - capped at under-19 level for England - played the second half of the 2-0 win over Morton on Tuesday and did enough to earn a deal at St Mirren.

Adeniran left Israeli club Hapoel Petah Tikva at the end of the season following spells at Sheffield Wednesday and Portimonense in Portugal.

On signing for the Paisley club, Adeniran told the club website: "I'm over the moon to get the deal done. 

"It's a good opportunity for me to come back to the UK and get started again. 

"The attraction of European football and the way the gaffer wants to play, his aspirations for the season, it just fitted perfectly for what I need right now in my career.

"It's a good opportunity playing in a top division, playing against big teams and playing in Europe. It's a fantastic set up here and I'm enjoying it so far.

"I spoke to Jaden [Brown]. He had nothing but good things to say about the club and I went to school with Toyosi [Olusanya] as well so I know them, but all the lads have been brilliant.

"I'm a hard-working player. I like to have the ball at my feet, I'm dynamic and I like to chip in with a goal or two."
