Partick Thistle FC is pleased to announce the signing of left-back Josh Reid on loan from Ross County until the end of the season, subject to Scottish FA clearance.
A product of County’s youth system, Reid made his first team debut for the Staggies as a starter in a 1-0 Scottish Premiership win over Motherwell in August 2020.
He’d go on to play 24 times in the subsequent five months before earning a January move to Coventry City in the English second tier.
During his time as a Sky Blue, Josh spent time on loan with Stevenage and received international recognition as part of the Scotland under 21s squad but decided to move back to Ross County in the summer of 2023.
In his first season back in the Highlands he played 24 times, including 14 starts, and he has made nine further appearances this term.
On the signing, Kris Doolan said:
“With Charlie Sayers and Harry Milne both departing in January, it was pretty clear we needed reinforcements at left-back. The loan market can be a tricky one to work in but we feel Josh will be a very strong addition to the squad.
“He fits the mould of what we want from that position; he’s a strong runner, a committed defender and someone who isn’t afraid to put the ball in the box for the attackers. We’re really looking forward to working with him for the remainder of the season.”
An interview with Josh will be available on JagZone soon.
