St Johnstone sign goalkeeper Johnstone
St Johnstone have signed their second goalkeeper of the summer after handing former Sunderland youngster Max Johnstone a 12-month deal.
Tommy Wright has already brought in ex-Dundee stopper Elliot Parish to challenge number one Zander Clark.
Now 20-year-old Johnstone has been added to that battle after making his move to Perth.
He has already spent time training with the Saints squad during their pre-season trip to Northern Ireland and will no take the slot previously held by Ross Sinclair, who has joined Brechin City on a season-long-loan.
Johnstone spent last season with Sunderland playing in their Under-23 squad and he also lists Manchester United among his former clubs.

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.
