St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Allan Campbell on a short-term deal until the end of the season.
The 27-year-old becomes our first signing of the January transfer window as he joins up with Stephen Robinson’s men for the remainder of the 2025/26 campaign.
Beginning his career at Motherwell where he would work with Robinson, Allan made 160 appearances for the Steelmen between 2016-2021 before making the move down south to join Luton Town.
The midfielder enjoyed a fruitful spell at the Hatters, helping them win promotion to the English Premier League during the 2022/23 season. His form at the Bedfordshire club saw him win his one and only Scotland cap in a 4-1 win away to Armenia.
During his time in England, there would also be loan spells at Millwall and Charlton Athletic where he would make a combined 29 appearances.
Allan returned to Scotland in January 2025 for a short spell at Dundee United, making 13 appearances for the Terrors as they finished fourth in the William Hill Premiership.
He'll take the number 16 jersey at Saints for the remainder of the season.
Speaking to stmirren.com, Allan said: "Obviously I know the manager.
"He was the one who gave me my real start in professional football, played me, backed me, and developed me a lot as a player. When the opportunity came up to come and play football under him, I thought it was a great opportunity.
I can't wait to get back playing," he continued.
"I love football and I love watching it, but at the same time it's difficult when you're not involved, so it's been good to be back in amongst the boys.
"I keep myself well. That's one thing I pride myself on, working hard off the pitch, so I've been keeping busy, making sure that I'm ready for when I get the chance and hopefully that'll be soon."
Manager Stephen Robinson said: "I've worked with Allan before. He's gone down to England and done very well.
He's the right type of character and he's got a lot of quality.
"He hasn't played football for a little while. But on a short-term contract, we think he's a fantastic signing and will be very good around the place as well. Allan's someone with immense talent that could influence games.
"With our numbers being short in midfield, he seemed like the perfect solution and we're confident that he'll be a real asset towards the end of the season."
