St Johnstone Snags Former Golden Boot Scorer for Boosting Attack in Scottish Premiership

Updated:2026-01-18 07:42    Views:136

In a stunning move, St Johnstone has snapped up former Scottish Premier League (SPL) golden boot winner Scott Arfield on loan from Burnley.

The 29-year-old striker is expected to boost the攻击力 of the Saints' attack, which struggled last season without top scorer and SPL Golden Boot winner Ryan Jack.

Arfield was one of the most prolific goal scorers in the SPL during his time at Burnley, scoring 15 goals in just 34 appearances last season before he joined West Bromwich Albion on loan.

He then made the switch to Burnley permanently in the summer, but failed to make an impact in the Premier League and has since been out of favour at Turf Moor.

However, his impressive form in the SPL means that St Johnstone will be hoping to unlock his potential once again this term.

The addition of Arfield could also provide some much-needed competition for the spot alongside Jack, with the pair being key figures for the club in recent seasons.

It's likely that the two strikers will have to battle it out for the starting role, with both players boasting plenty of experience and skill on the pitch.

Overall, the signing of Arfield is a major coup for St Johnstone and should help them compete more seriously for promotion next season.
