​Carrick McEvoy has agreed a new St Mirren contract until the summer of 2028, with the club holding the option of a further year.The 19-year-old midfielder pens the extension after making his first-team debut at the weekend.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe teenager played the full 90 minutes as St Mirren defeated Dumbarton 4-0 in their League Cup group opener.”It’s something that has been planned for a little while now based on how Carrick has been in pre-season and meeting the targets that we set for him coming back in,” said manager Craig McLeish.”Carrick is someone that I’ve known for a long time. I worked with him through the academy since he was about nine years of age. He was my captain with the under-19s group and was a really big player for us.”He’s a really talented boy and we see him as being a big part of the future of the club. Whether he plays loads of times with the first team this season in the league, that’s really down to Carrick and how he works and his performance levels.”
