Alex Gogic is relishing the prospect of his return to St Mirren after agreeing a two-year deal subject to international clearance.
The Cyprus international spent the second half of last season at the Paisley club after joining on loan from Hibernian, from where he became a free agent this summer.
The 28-year-old midfielder will arrive back in the country over the weekend and join up with the squad for training on Monday following Saturday’s cinch Premiership game at Dundee United.
Speaking to stmirren.com, Gogic said: “I’m excited to be returning to the club permanently. “I really enjoyed my football when I joined on loan in January and I can’t wait to get back to it.” Manager Stephen Robinson is also pleased to have Gogic back in his squad, saying: “Alex is a player that I really like. “We had Alex here previously and he is obviously very popular with the fans and in the dressing room. “He’s versatile and can play in two positions. “He plays for his country at centre-half and he was superb when I watched him in a back three for Cyprus against Northern Ireland. “Alex will add to the squad and we are delighted to have him back.” While Gogic will bolster Robinson’s squad, the Northern Irishman revealed that Toyosi Olusanya is out for “a period of time” with a broken toe.
