Ross County FC has officially announced the signing of midfielder Scott Allardice to a two-year deal.

Ross County's manager, Malky Mackay, expressed his enthusiasm about the new addition to the team.

In an official statement, Mackay said, "Scott is an experienced midfielder who excelled in his time at Inverness CT who I am delighted to sign. He is a good professional and leader and will be a great addition to our squad."

Allardice was born in Dundee in 1998 and started his football career with local teams Dundee Rovers and Celtic Boys Club before transitioning to Dundee as a youth player.

He joined the Dundee United youth programme at St John's Roman Catholic High School in 2010.

He turned professional in 2014 with Dundee United but had to sit out most of the 2014–15 season due to a knee injury.

Allardice made his first-team debut in a Scottish Championship match against Falkirk in April 2017.

During his career, Allardice had loan spells with East Fife and Dumbarton, making 13 appearances for the latter.

In 2019, he joined the League of Ireland Premier Division club Bohemians after a successful trial and later captained the team in the Scottish Challenge Cup.

Prior to the 2020 season, Allardice signed with League of Ireland team Waterford and then moved to Inverness Caledonian Thistle in August 2020. There, he secured a two-year contract extension in January 2021.



While with Inverness, he made over 70 appearances scoring seven times, with four assists.
