St Johnstone have confirmed the signing of Bobby Dailly on a one-year deal.
The 18-year-old has impressed in training and closed-doors matches after being released by Millwall in the summer.
Dailly – son of former Scotland and Dundee United star Christian – was briefly on trial with Dundee prior to arriving at McDiarmid Park.

Saints boss Callum Davidson, who was a team-mate of Christian’s at Blackburn Rovers and Scotland, can play in defence and midfield.
He may well soon be sent out on loan.
Davidson said: “Bobby has a lot of great attributes but he needs games. He needs to be playing men’s football to help his development.
“I’ve had a good chat with him and mapped out where I see things going for him.”
