HAMILTON Academical have secured the signing Greek midfielder Chrysovalantis Kozoronis and tied Darren Lyon down on a new contract.

Accies confirmed the double deal on Wednesday, with Kozoronis arriving from Greek Super League outfit PAS Giannina on a one-and-a-half year deal. 

The 25-year-old, who operates in the centre of midfield, made 11 appearances for PAS in the first half of the season.

Academy product Lyon has committed his future to the club until January 2021 after putting pen to paper on a contract extension.

The 22-year-old midfielder's deal was due to expire in May but he has bolstered manager Martin Canning's ranks for next season after making 11 Premiership appearances for the club this term.

Lyon has scored one goal in 2017/18, the winner in a 2-0 win away to Rangers that marked Hamilton's first league win at Ibrox since 1926.
