«Сент-Миррен» пополнил состав сборной Шотландии до 21 года полузащитником Карром.

Midfielder Ryan Carr is excited to be part of "something really exciting" after signing for St Mirren.

The Scotland Under-21 international moves to Paisley on a two-year contract, with a club-held option of a further 12 months, following his release by Ipswich Town.

"I'm very happy to get signed," said Carr. "I've had a couple of good conversations with the manager. What he's trying to build here is something really exciting and I want to be a part of it.

"Fans can expect that I will give 100% in every game. I'm energetic, hard working, love both sides of the game in possession and defending. Goals and assists are something I like to chip in with as well."

Carr, who previously had loan spells at Aveley, Gateshead and Ebbsfleet United, becomes new manager Craig McLeish's second summer arrival after Spanish midfielder Samuel Ramos.

McLeish says Saints' new head of recruitment Gavin Miller was the driving force behind Carr's signing.

"Ryan was brought to my attention by Gavin," he said.

"Gavin really liked him from watching him at Ipswich U21s and I then watched his footage from the Scotland U21s. I spoke to people that knew him, coaches, staff and players that worked with him at the U21 level.

"I think the fans will love his energy and his tenacity in the middle of the pitch and he can handle the ball really well too. He's one that we're really excited about."
