St Mirren complete signing of Gavin Reilly and Stelios Demetriou
The Paisley club moved quickly for Reilly after he became surplus to requirements at Tynecastle, while they have managed to retain Demetriou, who spent the second half of last season with the Buddies after signing from Doxa Katokopias in the Cypriot first division.
Reilly moved to Hearts ahead of the club’s return to the Ladbrokes Championship, signing a three-year contract but managed only 32 appearances and five goals, spending last season on loan at Dunfermline in the Championship.
