St Mirren have won the fight to land Israel under-21 star Stav Nahmani.
The Buddies have agreed a season-long loan deal with Maccabi Haifa, with an option to buy for £250,000. The deal for the highly-rated striker is subject to a work permit and visa being issued. It is a major coup for St Mirren boss Stephen Robinson as he has managed to fend off English Championship and League One interest to land Nahmani.
The 20-year-old has had recent loan spells in his homeland with Hapoel Not HaGalil, Beitar Jerusalem and Hapoel Hadera but is keen to try his luck in Europe. Nahmani has been impressed with the job Robinson did in leading St Mirren into a top six finish for the first time and wants to help them push for European football.
