Bohemians have announced the double signing of Estonian international pair Martin Miller and Michael Lilander from Flora Talinn on multi-year deals.
Miller is an attacking midfielder who has won 31 caps for his country, while Lilander is a versatile defender with 16 caps.
"Martin and Michael have been on our radar for a number of months," said Bohs manager Declan Devine.
"They bring tremendously versatility in areas where we felt we had to strengthen. They also bring great experience – from playing in European games, winning leagues and playing at international level.
"Michael can play in multiple positions across the back four. He has played for both Flora Tallinn and Estonia at left-back, right-back and centre-back. He is a very technical and attack-minded full-back, and he is someone we certainly feel will add competition and real quality to our defensive unit.
"Again, Martin is a player with great experience. He has 31 international caps, has played at a very high level and has five league titles under his belt. He is a very attack-minded midfield player, as people here may remember from him scoring twice against Shamrock Rovers in Europe before."
The signings of Miller and Lilander bring the number of new arrivals at Dalymount Park this close season to five. They join fellow Estonian Sten Reinkort, while Dayle Rooney has joined from Drogheda United and Rob Cornwall has returned to the club after a two-year spell playing for USL League One side Northern Colorado Hailstorm.
Bohemians kick off their 2024 SSE Airtricity Premier Division campaign at home to Sligo Rovers on Friday 16 February.
Their Dublin derby away to Shamrock Rovers will be broadcast on RTÉ2 on Friday 29 March and is one of four confirmed live League of Ireland broadcasts on RTÉ over the next two months.
Meanwhile, SSE Airtricity First Division side Kerry FC have announced the signing of Tralee native Ferdia O'Brien ahead of the 2024 campaign.
O'Brien represented Kerry in Gaelic football at minor level, winning two Munster and two All-Ireland finals under the management of Jack O'Connor.
The 25-year-old went on to play senior football with Austin Stacks GAA club for seven years. O'Brien can play in centre midfield and in the centre of defence and played soccer for Kingdom Boys before switching his attention to Gaelic games.
"I'm absolutely delighted to have signed with Kerry FC," said O'Brien.
"Having played GAA for so many years, giving soccer another go was something that I always wanted to do.
"It’s great that they got Kerry FC up and running in the county. It’s given opportunities to so many young talents in Kerry to play the game at the highest level which is great to see.
"It’s also given me a chance to play again and I feel coming from a different background to everyone else I can be an asset to the team using my experiences from the GAA. I can’t wait now to get up and running properly and playing in front of a packed out Mounthawk Park in a few weeks’ time."
Kerry FC's second season in League of Ireland football kicks off with a Munster derby away to Cork City on 16 February.
