Finland international star could be Motherwell's ninth summer signing

Motherwell are set to make their ninth summer signing in experienced defender Juhani Ojala.

The Daily Record reports that the 32-year-old reportedly impressed during a trial at Fir Park this summer.

Eyebrows were raised when Ojala wasn't part of Finland's Euros squad, having won 22 caps before then.

Ojala has played in Switzerland with Young Boys, Russia with Terek Grozny and with Hacken in Sweden, and is currently with Danish side Vejle Boldklub, where his contract is coming to an end.

He would be the Fir Park club's ninth summer signing, following Liam Kelly, Connor Shields, Justin Amaluzor, Darragh O'Connor, Kevin Van Veen, Kaiyne Woolery, Mich'el Parker and Callum Slattery.
