Arbroath manager Dick Campbell said: “I gave Ryan a big cuddle at training the other night to welcome him to Arbroath.
“Then I told him to get to work. Ryan doesn’t need to be told twice to work hard because he’s that type of lad.
“He won’t hide, he’ll always come looking for the ball and he believes in his own ability. He likes to take men on and create things.
“I still remember working with him 12 years ago and he was a great player back then. Now he’s a very experienced one.
“The most important thing is Ryan really wants to be at Arbroath and has a hunger and desire to do well.
“He can play a number of positions for us – up front, wide, just off the striker or in midfield. That will give us an additional threat going forward.”
