Founded back in 1884, St Johnstone Football Club have ingrained themselves in the annals of Scottish football, becoming an inextricable part of the game in the Old Country. They answer the melodious call of their home ground, McDiarmid Park, sitting with conviction in the Scottish Highlands.
The team is far from monetarily ostentatious, possessing a tight-knit crew of footballers with a market value hovering around a modest £4m - a figure made well reputable by the reputable football database, Transfermarkt.
Taking into account the full span of their squad, they total to a lean 17 members, charged with an inherent vigour with an average age of a sprightly 25. It's a team helmed by youth, daring to carve their lineage in the canvas of football.
Organised competitive involvement is no stranger to St Johnstone this season. Their collective energy has propelled them to the storied heights of two competitions. One being the Championship, where they stand tall, positioned in fantastic first place. Alongside that achievement, they've marked their passage to the Second Round of the League Cup. Ambitions, no doubt, are set for an illustrious journey ahead.
