Caley Jags have snapped up two new faces.

Caley Thistle manager Terry Butcher has swooped to sign a striker and a goalkeeper after both impressed in trials with the club.

Gil Blumanshtein, a 20 year old Israeli, is a pacy raider who can play across the front line. A former Rangers trialist, he played last season with Hapoel Bersheba. Gil has signed a one-year contract with Caley Jags and as he also holds a Polish passport, no work permit is necessary.

Goalkeeper Max Johnson is 19 and has spent three years with Newcastle United, being at their Youth Academy and playing for the youth side then the reserve team. Before that he had spells as an age group player at Bury and Burnley.  Born in Norwich, he went to school in Blackburn. He has also penned a one year deal.

Manager Terry Butcher said: "I received good recommendations on both lads and thery have shown up well in practice matches and earned themselves offers. Gil has good speed and is a versatile attacker and adds to our forward resources. We've been looking for goalkeeping backup for Ryan Esson, and Max has good experience from Newcastle and will challenge for the jersey.

"It's pleasing to get these deals done and dusted early. But we're not finished our recruitment yet and we have several other trialists continuing to train with us and we'll see if there are developments there."
