Motherwell have bolstered their attacking options with the signing of former St Johnstone striker Callum Hendry.
Hendry arrives on a two-year deal following three seasons in English football after Motherwell agreed an undisclosed fee with MK Dons.
Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou told the club’s official website: “We are delighted to welcome Callum to Motherwell FC.
“His energy, intelligence in finding space and strong finishing qualities will bring real value and competition to our squad.
“Callum arrives with a wealth of experience from both the EFL and the Scottish Premiership. His positive character and professionalism make him an excellent fit for our culture.
“He joins us with great hunger and desire to make his mark and we are excited to see him help drive the team forward.”

The 27-year-old scored 23 goals in two seasons with Salford and hit four goals in 32 appearances for MK Dons last term.
His nine goals in 18 games for Saints in the latter half of the 2021-22 season earned his move to Salford. He scored 23 goals in all for the Perth club and also netted on loan spells with Brechin, Aberdeen and Kilmarnock.
“It’s great to be back in Scotland,” Hendry said. “This move has been in the offing for a while and I’ve been really keen to get signed so I can focus on playing football.
“I know some of the guys in the dressing room and everyone seems like really nice people around the place.”
Hendry will compete with Apostolos Stamatelopoulos and loan signing Esapa Osong for the centre-forward role, which wide player Tawanda Maswanhise can also fill.
Askou also has Eseosa Sule, Zach Robinson and Filip Stuparevic on the long-term injury list.
