Partick Thistle have made a deadline day signing, snapping up attacker Antonio German on a short-term deal.

The forward, most recently with Indian Premier League side Kerala Blasters , has signed a contract until the end of the season.

German began his career with Queens Park Rangers and had loan spells Aldershot, Southend and Yeovil before leaving Loftus Road for Stockport County.

Short spells at Bromley and Brentford followed before he joined Gillingham on loan in 2013. That move was made permanent but he left the club in 2015 before moving to India, where he scored six goals in nine games.

"It's a no-brainer for me," he said. "Playing football in Scotland is something I've always wanted to do.

"I feel like Partick Thistle are the right club for me, the manager is the right manager and the team play football. Hopefully I can bring something different to the team."
