Ross County has announced the signing of Joshua Sims.

The 24-year-old winger had been a free agent since he departed Southampton last summer.

After getting Sims' signature, Ross County boss Malky Mackay told the club website: "We are absolutely delighted to bring Josh to Ross County.

"He is a player we have been aware of for a considerable time, and a great deal of work done to bring Josh to Dingwall.

"We have had to be patient and keep in regular contact over the course of the past 9 months, and are delighted to finally be able to sign him."

He continued: "Josh is an exciting player with great domestic and international experience that will add to our group, and he is a player I think our fans will really enjoy watching.

"I'd like to once again thank Southampton for our continued relationship."
