Former Tottenham Hotspur and Wolves midfielder Rohan Ricketts has signed for Shamrock Rovers.
The Hoops have also signed former Motherwell defender Jim Paterson and both players should be available for Saturday’s Airtricity League clash with Dundalk on Saturday.
The signings are a boost for the Hoops ahead of the run in to the end of the league season and the Europa League groups stages.
Commenting on the signings, Hoops boss, Michael O’Neill said: “We’re delighted to have added the two players to our squad, especially given the limited time period we had.
“Jim will add great experience having played over 300 games at SPL and Championship level and can play in a number of positions.
“Rohan is a very exciting option and can add a little bit extra in the final third of the pitch. He has also played first team football at the highest level.”
