Malik Dijksteel completes early move to St Mirren after pre-contract agreement
The former Cork City winger arrived in Paisley yesterday after he put pen to paper on a three-year deal at the Saints. St Mirren have announced the arrival of Malik Dijksteel from Cork City after the club struck a deal to get the winger in early. Last week, the club announced they had signed the 24-year-old on a pre-contract from League of Ireland Premier Division side Cork City. But now, the Saints have reached a deal with City to bring the Dutch player to Paisley on a three-year deal. Manager Robinson believes Dijksteel will be able to offer him attributes similar to those of Ryan Alebiosu last season when he occupied the right flank. 'He's another real live option for the [right hand side],' he said at the club's Ralston training ground yesterday. 'And the thing with Malik is he's been playing games as well due to the earlier start to the season in Ireland. 'We knew last year that in certain games, we've gained a lot of respect from the opposition where teams sit in and it's hard to break them down. 'And we didn't have those wingers that went past people, those 1v1 situations, outwith Ryan Alebiosu [last season]. 'So, we brought him [Dijksteel] in and Jalmaro Calvin, while having Roland Idowu and Conor McMenamin already in the building. 'And I believe Malik's another one of those boys that can then cause havoc. 'He can be really exciting. He needs to get up to our work ethic without the ball as well. But he certainly is a really exciting signing and one I think fans will really take to.' Robinson now has an array of options in his wide areas after they brought in Calvin and Jayden Richardson. The Saints gaffer hopes his squad will play at their top level when they pitch up at Celtic Park on Sunday afternoon to kick off their Scottish Premiership season. It will be a rematch of the final game of the 2024/25 campaign, where the Buddies looked almost certain to bag all three points but for a late James Forrest equaliser. Robbo says he will take lessons from the end of last season as the Buddies prepare to for a challenging run of fixtures. 'We will approach it with no fear,' he said. 'We go with the same ethos, the same organisation, the same work rate. 'We've added players at the top end of the pitch. But those players at the top end of the pitch still have to come into our work ethic. 'So as much as they go and give you confidence, it's a completely new season, completely different teams you're playing against in terms of assignments. 'And everything starts again. But nothing changes in terms of our work ethic and our organisation.'

United's famous names 'dealing with the craziness' at SuperCupNI
The sight of a Manchester United team-sheet with the names Rooney and Carrick upon it may usually cause fans of the Red Devils to look back fondly but, in Northern Ireland this week, it has instead represented a glimpse of the possible future. The Premiership giants have a rich history at the SuperCupNI - the junior tournament formerly known as the Milk Cup - and this year's crop of under-16s have once again reached the Premier Division will take on Southampton in Coleraine on Friday night in a game that will be streamed live on the BBC Sport website (20:00 BST).David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Nicky Butt, the Neville brothers, Danny Wellbeck and Marcus Rashford are just some of those who have shone at the tournament before going on to grace Old favourites Jonny Evans and Keith Gillespie, who will be part of the BBC coverage on Friday, are notable alumni too. With their famous fathers, Kai Rooney and Jacey Carrick have been attracting plenty of attention on the way to the final but their coach, Tom Curtis, does not feel the duo are under any undue pressure."Wayne and Michael were top, top players - world class players - so, of course, there's a bit of pressure on the lads but I don't think they feel it," said Curtis who is head of player development at Manchester United for the 13-16 age group."They have been fantastic in their work ethic, their application, their approach to the tournament, which is a really tough one, by the way, especially the way we play."They're top guys and hopefully they'll have a good career." Both Wayne Rooney and Michael Carrick have been interested specatators on Northern Ireland's north coast this week."The parents are fantastic, the way they have supported their sons in their Manchester United journey," Curtis said."In all seriousness, the way they as parents manage the lads' football has been top class and I don't feel that the boys feel any pressure"I've got to say, any time I've ever spoke to them they're level-headed, very calm, not expecting too much from the boys – just letting them get on and enjoy their football and that is really reflected in the way they go about their business."With so many from previous teams having gone on to professional careers, local Manchester United fans have been clamouring all week for a sight of potential stars of the future. Curtis feels dealing with the furore is an added benefit of the week for his young charges. "If these lads are going to go and play for Manchester United they're going to have to deal with the pressure so it's really nice practice for them," he added."I've loved them going to sign their autographs, I've loved them dealing with the craziness really – everyone's a United fan."
