Released Liverpool academy prospect Oludare Olufunwa has signed with St Johnstone.
Olufunwa moves to Scotland as a free agent.
I am delighted to get here and get settled down. I met all the boys yesterday and they seem a good group of lads. I am excited for the first game of the season," he said.
I know Scottish football, it is a very good standard with some big teams in the league.
I spoke to the gaffer before I came in and he explained how this would be a good step for me and my career. The move made sense.
I came through at Southampton and then moved to Liverpool last summer. For me it is probably one of the biggest clubs in the world. It was a great experience and I have to thank everyone there for what they did for me. They improved me as a player and as a person.
The standard in training has been really high, all the boys look very sharp.
I have been playing against Dan Phillips from quite a young age up. It has been good to see him again and he has helped me to integrate with the rest of the lads.
I am comfortable at right back or centre back. The fans can expect to see a lot of passion from me and I will give everything when I have that shirt on.
I want to play and win as many games as possible and help us have a good campaign."
