The Scottish Premiership returns in just one week and Celtic, Rangers, Hearts and Hibs are all still hoping to strengthen their squads with the season opener firmly on the horizon.
There are still approximately five weeks left in the summer transfer window; however, the clock is ticking as managers look to add those finishing touches to their squads for the 2026/27 campaign.
While every fan loves to see their club splash the cash on the next potential superstar, there are often lots of bargains to be found in the free agent market, with several players coming to the end of their contract in the summer and looking for their next challenge.
Here, The Scotsman looks at 13 of the best free agents still able to sign for clubs, including a five-time English Premier League title winner, a former £50million Manchester United favourite and a double promotion-winning left-back.
Would you like to see your club add any of these free agents to the squad in the coming weeks?
1. Adam Webster
The 31-year-old centre-back is a free agent after spending seven seasons in the English Premier League with Brighton. Vastly experienced, he's played over 130 games in the top flight and still has plenty left in the tank, although he did miss the entirety of last season with an ACL injury. He was previously the club's record signing when they paid Bristol City a fee of £20million for his services. | Getty Images
2. Riyad Mahrez
The former English Premier League title winner is 35 and looking for a new club this summer after three years with Al-Ahli in the Saudi Pro League. He once famously had a trial with St Mirren as a youngster, so it would be quite a fun tale to see him end his career in the Scottish Premiership. | Getty Images
3. Ross Stewart
The Scotland international overcame two years of injury hell to became a vital part of Southampton's attack last season, bagging nine goals and three assists in 27 appearances. He won himself a surprise spot in Steve Clarke's squad for the World Cup in the summer but, is currently a without a club after the Saints opted not to trigger an option in his contract. A bargain pick up in the free agency market if he can retain his fitness. | AFP via Getty Images
4. Ryan Fraser
The highly-experienced former Scotland international winger is looking for his next club after his short-term deal with Australian side Wellington Phoenix came to an end recently. An English Premier League regular with Southampton and Newcastle United in the not too distant past, he's not played in the Scottish Premiership since leaving Aberdeen over a decade ago. Still just 32, he could still prove to be a handy free transfer signing for several clubs in Scotland. | Getty Images
