    Aribiyi ready to bring flair to Motherwell side

    January recruit Gboly Aribiyi says he will bring pace and flair to the Motherwell side.

    The loan signing from Nottingham Forest, a former team-mate at Ross McCormack, has linked up with Stephen Robinson’s side for the remainder of the 2018/19 campaign.

    Nottingham Forest’s Gboly Ariyibi joins on loan

    Nottingham Forest’s Gboly Ariyibi joins on loan

    Motherwell have taken Nottingham Forest’s United States Under 23 international Gboly Ariyibi on loan until the end of the current season.

    The 23-year-old forward is the second addition of the January window, following the recent arrival of Ross McCormack from Aston Villa.

    “I am delighted to join and I can’t wait to get started,” he said.

    “I’ve heard a lot of good things about the club and the league and as soon as I spoke with the manager, I knew this is where I wanted to come.”

    Born in Arlington, Virginia to Nigerian parents, Ariyibi spent the majority of his life in England, but for a short time living in Lagos.

    He came through the youth ranks at Southampton before moving to Leeds United, where he teamed with McCormack.

    He made his Championship debut almost exactly five years ago against his current club, Nottingham Forest, before a short-term loan to Tranmere Rovers.

    Following his release by Leeds in 2014, Ariyibi joined Chesterfield and turned out 96 times for the Spireites across two-and-a-half seasons, before being bought by Forest for an undisclosed fee in the January 2017 window.

    Although he has yet to make his senior debut at the City Ground, he has clocked up another 40 matches in League One with loans at MK Dons and Northampton.

    “We’ve been tracking the player for quite some time and I am really pleased to get this agreed and over the line,” ‘Well boss Stephen Robinson said.

    “He’s a fast-footed, speedy forward player who can plays on either flank or through the middle. He fits the type of profile we were looking for and will hopefully provide a different dimension in the forward areas.

    “Going into the window, we were keen to boost our attacking options and with Ross and Gboly, we’ve made a good start.”

    McCormack delighted to be back at Fir Park

    Ross McCormack says he’s ready to “step it up” after making his return to Motherwell on loan for the rest of the 2018/19 season.

    The striker, a prolific scorer throughout a career which has seen him rack up around £25m in transfer moves since leaving in 2008, has made the move back north from Aston Villa.

    Ross McCormack makes ‘Well return

    Ross McCormack makes ‘Well return

    Motherwell Football Club are delighted to confirm striker Ross McCormack has returned to the club on a five-month loan from Aston Villa, subject to international clearance.

    McCormack, 32, spent two years at Fir Park between 2006 and 2008, helping the club to a historic third-place SPL finish in his second season, striking up a lethal partnership with both Chris Porter and David Clarkson in the Steelmen attack.

    It was around that time he won the first of his 13 Scotland caps, making his debut alongside Clarkson against Czech Republic.

    He now returns to Fir Park to bolster manager Stephen Robinson’s striking options for the second half of the 2018/19 campaign.

    “I am delighted to be back,” McCormack said.

    “Although I was a youth player at Rangers, got a good education there and played some first team games, I feel like this was the club that helped launch my career and I will be forever grateful for that.

    “I’ve had a frustrating few years and I am desperate to just get back on the pitch again and do what I do.

    “I want to put something back in to Motherwell for what they did for me all those years ago. My aim is to come in and score goals, help the team and help develop some of the younger talent in the squad.”

    His past form for ‘Well earned him a move to Cardiff City in June 2008. He spent three years in south Wales, notching an impressive 30 goals in 60 starts for the Championship side, prompting Leeds United to sign the player in the summer of 2010 for an undisclosed fee.

    Four successful years at Elland Road, netting 58 goals in 130 starts, including winning the English Championship golden boot in 2013-14, persuaded the then-Fulham boss Felix Magath to spend a reported £11m to take him to Craven Cottege.

    His red-hot scoring form continued in London when, over his two seasons with the Cottagers, he scored 42 goals in 97 starts.

    Roberto Di Matteo then paid the second highest fee in Aston Villa history, at a reported £12m, to take him to Villa Park in August of 2016. However, he fell out of favour and was loaned out to fellow Championship side Nottingham Forest in his first campaign.

    He was out on loan again last season, spending another goal-laden spell at Melbourne City where he hit 14 goals in 14 starts for the A-League club.

    He was back down under again this term, at Central Coast Mariners, but has cut his time short to return home to Fir Park and line up in claret and amber once again.

    “We are delighted to get a player of Ross’ quality at the club,” manager Stephen Robinson said of the move.

    “This is a player who has earned over £25 million in transfer fees, is the all-time top scorer in the EFL Championship with a record better than one goal in three games and is experienced at international level.

    “However, despite all that, what has impressed me most is his desire to be here, to contribute and put something back in and help us for the rest of this season.

    “He has a slight knee injury, that we’ve looked at extensively, which means he will be out for the next few weeks. But we hope to have him involved with the first team come the games at the end of January, or beginning of February.”

    Ross will be allotted squad number 44, with youngster Dean Cornelius promoted to number 38 following Alfredo Agyeman’s departure at the end of his contract.
