St Mirren eye deals for Lee Hodson and Kenny Miller
Alan Stubbs is looking to bolster his squad before the end of the transfer window
St Mirren are close to signing Rangers full-back Lee Hodson on a season-long loan deal - and could make a move for his former Ibrox team-mate Kenny Miller following his Livingston departure.
Northern Ireland international Hodson has found himself surplus to requirements under new Gers boss Steven Gerrard.
The versatile former Kilmarnock and MK Dons defender can operate on both flanks but is now below Light Blues skipper James Tavernier, Jon Flanagan and Borna Barisic in the Ibrox pecking order.
But it's understood Alan Stubbs is set to hand the him the chance to relaunch his career with the Buddies, with a deal expected to be confirmed later on Monday.
Hodson was signed by ex-Rangers boss Mark Warburton back in 2016 and has gone on to make 27 appearances, scoring once.
And he could be joined in Paisley by former Gers colleague Miller.
Saints are interested in talking to the 38-year-old following his surprise Livi exit.
It was confirmed on Monday morning that the player-boss had parted company with the Lions after the former Scotland striker refused to give up his on-field duties.
Miller had only been in charge for seven weeks after replacing David Hopkin as boss - but the top-flight new boys have decided Miller's joint role combining playing and managerial duties "was not working''.
With Miller unwilling to hang up his boots, Livi say they have decided to make a change.
Now he could be set to resume his playing career with St Mirren, who are keen to hold discussions
