Welcome Bair! St. Johnstone Confirm Striker Signing

St. Johnstone has announced the capture of Canadian international Theo Bair, with the Striker joining on a deal until 2024.

The 22-year-old arrives in Perth from MLS side Vancouver Whitecaps for a suspected fee of around £80,000 - which has add-ons and a sell-on clause which will see the MLS club rake in 50% of any fee received for Bair.

Here is what Bair himself said upon signing for Saints:

"This is a new start for me and I am looking forward to being part of the team.

"I feel my game will be a good fit for Scottish football and I want to play my part in helping us win games of football.

"I know that the Football Club is determined to stay in the Premiership. I know everyone at the Football Club shares this goal to succeed.

"It presents all of us with a challenge we need to embrace and we will go for it. I know I am ready for it."

Amazing to finally have this deal done. Bair is an incredibly exciting talent! The Canadian will be available for Saturday's home match against Dundee United.
