MOTHERWELL have signed forward Deimantas Petravicius on a deal until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old has seven caps for Lithuania and arrives at Fir Park after impressing during a trial period.

Petravicius can play wide or through the middle and boss Stephen Robinson is pleased to have him on board this term.

He said: “Deimantas has been with us and played in a couple of bounce matches at Dalziel Park. He comes with an excellent pedigree; he’s already a full international and has played in the English Championship and the Polish top flight.

“He is completely different to what we have at the top end of the pitch in that he’s extremely quick, so we have a different dimension. He’ll be one that will have to get up to speed and fight his way into the starting eleven.

“However, like George Newell, another young forward we recently recruited, we have real high hopes he can progress with us.”
