Motherwell have signed former Rangers and Derby County defender Bob Malcolm until the end of the season.
Malcolm, 27, has been searching for a club since being released by the English Premier League side last month.
The Scot, who can also play in midfield, failed to settle at Derby and spent a loan spell at Queen's Park Rangers last November.
Malcolm left Ibrox in September 2006 after falling out of favour under the then Rangers manager Paul Le Guen.
He made 14 appearances for Derby after moving to Pride Park, including one in the Barclays Premier League in this season's 6-0 defeat at Liverpool.
But he was then loaned to QPR in November and played 11 times for the Coca-Cola Championship side.
Motherwell said the club was delighted to sign Malcolm after he showed a willingness to return to Scotland.
Malcolm has been added to Mark McGhee's squad for Wednesday's SPL match against Aberdeen at Pittodrie.

Surprised at this. He wasnt a bad player for Rangers although was maybe out his depth a bit. Think he will do a job with Motherwell and will probably be looking to secure a permanent move to Fir Park.
