Hamilton sign Johnny Hunt
Hamilton continue to strengthen for next season with the signing of left-back Johnny Hunt.
Accies head coach Brian Rice moved for the 28-year-old after his contract at Stevenage ended.
Liverpool-born Hunt, who started his career at Wrexham before spells at Cambridge, Chester and Mansfield, will move to Lanarkshire subject to international clearance.
Rice told the club’s official website: “I’m delighted to sign Johnny for Hamilton.
“He’s a player I’ve watched a few times and I know he’s the type of player and character that will do well here.
“He has that never-quit attitude that I look for in my players and with his experience of playing south of the border
“I feel this could be a great move for him.”

Speaking to AcciesTV, Hunt said: “I’m really happy, once I knew the club was interested I wanted to get the deal done as soon as possible, so I could meet the squad and get ready for the season that lies ahead.
“I treat every game as a rivalry, that’s the type of player I am. Coming up against Motherwell is a game I’m particularly looking forward to.”
Hunt has been with the Hamilton squad in Largs over the weekend as part of their pre-season training.
FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
