St Mirren Football Club is delighted to announce the loan signing of Stav Nahmani from Maccabi Haifa until the end of the season subject to a work permit and international clearance with the option to make the transfer permanent. 

At the age of 20, Stav has made 62 appearances in the top division in Israel as well as 21 appearances with the Israel national teams at various age groups up to U21 level.

In the 2019/20 season, Stav was selected as the Most Valuable Player of the U19 league and in May 2020, made his senior debut for Maccabi Haifa at 18 years old. He also had experience of continental football with Maccabi in the UEFA Europa League in 2020.

In season 2022/23, the forward was on loan to Beitar Jerusalem until January and had another loan spell at Hapoel Hadera before returning to Maccabi Haifa at the end of the season.

Manager Stephen Robinson said: "Stav came to us through the same contacts that we got Ryan Strain from Maccabi Haifa.

He’s a young player that’s come through the Israeli age groups.

He’s got a great work ethic and he gives us real raw pace running in behind.

"We hope he can add goals to our team and pace in the forward areas. He’s a real exciting one that can play in a couple of areas across the forward areas."

St Mirren Football Club can confirm that Eamonn Brophy has departed the club to join Ross County on a permanent deal.

The forward joins the Staggies for an undisclosed six-figure transfer fee.

Eamonn joined St Mirren in January 2021 – initially on loan – before completing a three-year deal that summer. The 27-year-old would go on to make 58 appearances for the Buddies, scoring eight goals.

We thank Eamonn for his service to the club and wish him the best in his future career.

St Mirren's 2023/24 preparations began with 0-0 draw against Glentoran in Belfast. 

Saints got valuable minutes in the legs against the NIFL Premiership side at the Blanchflower Stadium as part of the Marcus Kane Testimonial. 

The Buddies could have had two first-half penalties when Toyosi Olusanya was first fouled by the Glentoran goalkeeper on just four minutes and he was clipped in the box later in the half.

New signing Zach Hemming made a good save early on to hold a low Glentoran strike from the edge of the area on 13 minutes which was the hosts best chance of the half. Mark O'Hara went close when he glanced a header wide from a Lewis Jamieson cross, while Youth Academy player Ethan Sutherland was denied by the goalkeeper after a terrific solo run in the final minutes of the half. 

Manager Stephen Robinson made nine changes at half-time to give as many players minutes as possible. But the game felt like a typical pre-season game with little action until the closing stages when Saints would create a number of opportunities for a winner. Alex Greive twice went close with an effort that flew just over on 77 minutes before his strike from 20 yards went just inches wide four minutes later. 

Scott Tanser looked like he had won it for the Buddies on 84 minutes when he was found at the back post, but his volley was wonderfully saved by the Glentoran goalkeeper as the game finished goalless.

Full-Time: Glentoran 0-0 St Mirren

St Mirren First-Half XI: Hemming, Kenny, Gallagher, Dunne, Strain, Kiltie, Boyd-Munce, O'Hara, Sutherland, Olusanya, Jamieson
St Mirren Second-Half XI: Urminsky, Fraser, Gogic, R.Taylor, Flynn, Baccus, Boyd-Munce (Gaffney 71), F.Taylor, Tanser, Greive, Olusanya (Gilmartin 60)

St Mirren Football Club is delighted to confirm the signing of Zach Hemming on loan until the end of the season. 

The 23-year-old goalkeeper joins us on the temporary transfer from English Championship side Middlesbrough.

Zach is no stranger to Scottish football, having spent the last two seasons on loan at Kilmarnock where he made 54 appearances and kept 19 clean sheets. As well as his time at the Ayrshire side, Zach has had spells at Darlington, Hartlepool and Blyth Spartans.

Speaking to stmirren.com, Zach said: "I’m delighted to be here.

"I remember seeing the team when I was at Kilmarnock and it seems very structured and everyone knows their role in the team.

The manager knows how capable I am and what I can do so I just want to impress. I can’t wait to get going."

Manager Stephen Robinson added: "Zach is someone that we have been looking at for a while. We watched him at Kilmarnock and I know the goalkeeping coach at Middlesborough.

We’ve had really good reports on Zach and we’ve seen him close hand so I’m very confident that he will come in and do well.

"He’s a young, enthusiastic goalkeeper and we’re delighted to have him in."

Past. Present. Future.

The 2023/24 Home Kit has been inspired by the club’s historic time period of 1979-81 as the new release pays homage to the kit worn in the Anglo-Scottish Cup as well as the club’s first ever match in Europe. The nostalgic design intentionally connects our past, present and future. The success of our proud past drives forward the passion felt today, motivating us to move forward and continue St Mirren’s legacy.

St Mirren players celebrate their first trophy of note in 21 years when they easily disposed of Bristol City in the Anglo-Scottish final at Love Street in April 1980. Doug Somner scored twice, the other goal coming from Alan Logan. Their elated manager, Jim Clunie, said: "We can now build on this success…The fans were simply magic, simply tremendous."

Introducing The Connected Kit

The latest strip has the classic style of a 'V' neck shape and sophisticated gold badge marking technical kit partner, Macron. Chevrons run down the shirt sleeves comparable with the vintage top from 1979-81. The standout feature is our iconic check pattern, glorified from the renowned St Mirren crest. The chequered design originated from the Royal Stewart family who founded the Paisley Abbey in 1163. Their coat of arms is represented by the club’s blue-and-white check and now, in the 2023/24 kit.

To wear the 2023/24 St Mirren Home Kit is to pay respect to our origin, our past and to our town, which was the beginning of our team. It signifies that by standing side by side, together as a family, we will play and support one another with honour. By respecting our heritage, we stay connected as we grow and strengthen.

Country Manager for Macron, Andrea Palilla, had promised the team wear collection would "draw on St Mirren’s glorious past" and the release hopefully meets fans expectations.

St Mirren Chief Operating Officer, Keith Lasley, said: "Great attention to detail has been taken to create a home kit that keeps to tradition while also incorporating a fresh look to represent our ambitious future. To inspire future success, we have reflected to our past to see how far we’ve come, and we have done it together as a family.

We hope our fans can see and appreciate the lineage and evolution that has inspired the 2023/24 St Mirren Home Kit and the powerful connection linking past, present and future."
