St Johnstone sign keeper Mannus from Shamrock Rovers

Alan Mannus had trials in England and Scotland in 2009

Northern Ireland keeper Alan Mannus has moved from Shamrock Rovers to Scottish Premier League side St Johnstone.

The 29-year-old former Linfield player exercised an option in his contract to move to a UK club if an offer was made after 20 July.

Mannus joined Rovers in 2009 and helped the Dublin side to the Airtricity Premier Division title last year.

Shamrock boss Michael O'Neill has filled the void by signing former Sligo Rovers keeper Richard Brush.
