MOTHERWELL have signed Conor Sammon on a season-long loan from Hearts.

The 31-year-old forward spent last season on loan at Partick Thistle, where he scored 10 goals but couldn't prevent the Firhill side being relegated through the play-offs.

“I’m just looking forward to getting stuck in here, playing a lot of games, scoring a lot of goals, and just being a part of a successful season,” Sammon told the club website.

“I think the other strikers in the squad are similar. They’re physical, strong and quick, so I definitely think I can fit in here and I think my style of play will help me to have a good season here.

“And I’m looking forward to that, to training with the lads and to getting familiar with each other and how we play.”
