Former Aris, AEK defender Jahic leaves St Johnstone

Sanel Jahic has departed St Johnstone following the expiration of his contract.

The 32-year old Bosnian international joined the Saints in October on a short-term deal which has ended, leading his subsequent exit, with the Scottish unable to offer him an extension because of financial constraints.

"Sanel is one I would like to have kept and he was willing to stay but I feel that what money we have to strengthen the squad has to be used in other areas," said manager Tommy Wright.

The former Zeljeznicar, Aris Thessaloniki, AEK Athens and APOEL man arrived at McDiarmid Park after leaving Turkish club Karubukspor at the end of the 2012/13 season and made six appearances for the Saints.
