“There has been a lot of work to get Johnny here,” manager Stuart Kettlewell told the official Motherwell website.

“Johnny is a good player who has a wealth of experience in a good league. I’ve spoken with him and he is very ambitious.

“We both feel this is an excellent opportunity for him to develop and push into that next chapter of his career. He’s came to the other side of the world, which is a lot of commitment.

“He’s now got plenty time to adjust and settle before the competitive season begins.”

Koutroumbis, 26, has been capped by Australia at under-23 level.
