Paddy McCourt never started a league game for Brighton, but came off the bench 10 times

League Two side Luton Town have signed Northern Ireland winger Paddy McCourt and former Colchester United defender Magnus Okuonghae on two-year deals.

Ex-Celtic man McCourt, 31, has been capped 14 times by Northern Ireland.

He left Brighton in May having ended last term on loan at Notts County.

Okuonghae, 29, left the U's, where he made over 200 appearances in a six-year spell, at the end of last season after an Achilles injury ruled him out of much of the campaign.

The Nigerian previously worked with Hatters boss John Still at Dagenham.

"When I knew Luton were interested I drove out the car park at another club," said Okuonghae.
