Profile
The experienced midfielder came through the youth system at Dundee United and during his time at Tannadice he had loan spells at Stirling Albion and Airdrie. After leaving the Tangerines, he joined Paul Hartley at Alloa Athletic where he helped the Wasps achieve back-to-back promotions before consolidating in the Championship.
His performances would earn him a full time contract at Raith Rovers where he spent a season before joining Arbroath in the summer of 2016. He was an instrumental figure in their League Two Championship winning squad before picking up another winners medal last season as the Lichties gained promotion to the Championship.
Manager Barry Smith said, "We are delighted to have Ryan join us here at the club. He's a really good signing with undoubted talent and his ability will be a huge asset to the team. He was unfortunate not to have played a bigger part in Arbroath's title-winning campaign last season, as that was simply down to the form of others."
