Falkirk have confirmed they have completed the re-signing of Pedro Moutinho.

The club have finally received confirmation the Portuguese forward's contract dispute with former club CS Maritimo had been resolved.

That has allowed him to officially rejoin the Bairns, where he spent four seasons before returning to his homeland in the summer of last year.

Moutinho, 30, goes straight into the squad for Sunday's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Celtic.

He told his club's official website: "It is great to be back with Falkirk and I would like to thank the club staff, who worked so hard behind the scenes to make this possible.

"I am now really looking forward to the game against Celtic on Sunday."

Moutinho had been training with Falkirk for a number of weeks and verbally agreed a short-term contract until January earlier this week.
