Partick Thistle have bolstered their attacking options by signing Miles Storey and Conor Sammon from Aberdeen and Hearts respectively.
The former has joined for an undisclosed fee, while Sammon moves to Maryhill on a season-long loan from Edinburgh.
Storey, 23, joined Aberdeen last summer but scored just two goals in 20 appearences for the Dons. He was more prolific during a loan spell in Inverness two seaons ago, netting 13 times as Caley Thistle finished seventh.
Sammon, 30, made his name at Kilmarnock and had spells with Wigan and Derby before returning to Scotland with Hearts last summer. It did not work out for him at Tynecastle and he spent six months on loan back at Rugby Park last season.
Thistle manager Alan Archibald said: "It now gives us four excellent and very different attacking options which is a great position to be in.
"Both players bring good experience at this level and are obviously familiar with the league and the opposition we will be playing against week in, week out. The other positive is that they are both fit and should be able to hit the ground running which is a massive bonus for us."
