St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Tony Andreu on a one-year contract.

The French midfielder, who flew out to Spain with the team on Monday for their pre-season camp, put pen-to-paper following the expiry of his contract at English side Coventry City.

Andreu, who spent the end of last season on-loan at fellow Ladbrokes Premiership side Hamilton Accies, becomes Jim Goodwin’s first signing since being named St Mirren manager last week.

Speaking on the move, Andreu said: "I feel very happy to be here.

"It was really nice to hear that St Mirren wanted me because I think it is a great club. 

"I think the last couple of months that the club has done a really great job. It was an easy decision for me to come here because I have seen what the players and what the club are capable of. 

"I had a great chat with the gaffer. He really wants to achieve great things with this club and I think after a minute speaking with him he convinced me with his passion."

Jim Goodwin said: "I'm delighted to get Tony in. As soon as I heard he was available it was a new brainer for me.

"He ticks a lot of boxes with regards of how I want us to play this season.

"He's very fit, technically really good, has great timing in the box and hopefully he'll get us a few goals."

A full interview with Tony will be available to Buddievision subscribers tomorrow.

We can confirm that Mihai Popescu has returned to Dinamo Bucharest following the expiry of his loan agreement.

The club had hoped to extend Mihai’s loan for a further season and believed we had reached an agreement with his representatives.

However, unfortunately demands from Mihai’s representatives changed and became unrealistic.

We are disappointed that we were unable to reach an agreement with Mihai but we continue to press on with other targets.

We would like to thank Mihai for his contributions last season and wish him all the best in his future career.

It has been confirmed that St Mirren's Betfred Cup Group Stage match away to Albion Rovers at the Reigart Stadium on Tuesday 23rd July will be pay-at-the-gate.
