Jack Wills Signs on Loan - By Steven Mew

The Club is pleased to confirm the signing of highly-rated goalkeeper Jack Wills on a season-long loan from Premiership side St Johnstone.

The 18-year old played the full 90 minutes in both pre-season friendlies against Forfar Athletic and Dundee United and signed a contract extension at McDiarmid Park earlier this year.

Jack, who has been gaining valuable training experience with the first team at St Johnstone, spent time on loan with Edinburgh University in the Lowland League last season.

City Manager Andy Kirk commented, "Jack was put forward to us as a young keeper with a lot of potential. We got him in training to have a look and we quickly established that he is a very talented boy and he's desperate to get playing football.

"He has a lot of good attributes and he is highly thought of at St Johnstone. He needs to play games and experience senior football and we're confident that he'll do well for us this season. He has done well in the pre-season games for us and we're delighted to get him on board.
