Image source, SNSJames Scott has joined Ross County on a season-long loan, with St Mirren having the option to recall the 24-year-old in January.
The forward joined the Saints on loan from Exeter in January 2024 before signing a permanent two-year deal last summer.
Scott has made 34 appearances for the Paisley side, netting one goal and contributing four assists.
"James is someone that I've known for a long time, he has so much talent, but we've just not been able to get the best out of him and we feel like a new start for him will help him go and get his confidence back," said manager Stephen Robinson.
"I believe Ross County are getting a very talented player and a great kid as well."
Image source, SNSDefender Alex Iacovitti has left St Mirren by mutual consent to rejoin Ross County.
The 27-year-old moved to the Buddies last summer from Port Vale on a two-year deal.
Despite being dogged by injuries, Iacovitti made 23 appearances and scored three times for Stephen Robinson's side, including goals in Conference League qualifiers against Valur and SK Brann.
He has signed a one-year deal at County, where he previously played over 100 games before moving south in 2023.
"Alex was very unfortunate as he had numerous injuries last season which made his season really stop-start," Saints manager Robinson said.
"We won't forget his goal away to Brann and the joy that brought to so many people. But Alex is at an age where he needs to play football and we didn't want to stand in his way."
