Queen’s Park’s options in the middle of the pitch have been bolstered by the signing of Scottish under-21 internationalist Roddy MacGregor on a two-year contract following the expiry of his contract with Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

The 22-year-old midfielder was with the Highlanders when he turned professional in 2018 and made his debut in November of that year before going on to make a further 112 appearances including playing in the 2023 Scottish Cup Final.

Roddy was given international honours in May 2021 when he came on as a substitute in a Scotland under-21 game against Northern Ireland in a game that finished 3-2 to the Young Scots.

After meeting up with his new team-mates at the weekend and is part of the training camp that is being held in Northern Ireland with Callum Davidson delighted that a long-time pursuit of the player has been successful.

Callum said: “I first became aware of Roddy when I as at St Johnstone and I was keen on him then. He was very highly rated when he was breaking through and has added to his game since then.

“When the opportunity came to bring him to Queen’s Park, I was delighted that we were able to get it done. He is a talented and versatile footballer who can be creative, play in the number 10 position and also go box-box.

“He is also hungry to do well in the game and that attitude is what I want from all my players. Our squad has lost a few bodies however bringing in a player like Roddy, who are determined to make an impact, is a great sign.”

Queen’s Park’s Director of Football Darren O’Donnell added: “I am delighted that we have managed to secure the services of one of the main targets that Callum was after. Roddy is an excellent player that I am sure will be a great addition to our team for the coming season.”
