Cameron can play in midfield or fill in at the back if required. Saints boss Danny Lennon seems to think he can play on the left side of midfield and act as cover for Steven Robb, although whether he can remains to be seen.
He's had a fairly disappointing career since making his debut for United six years ago. He went for a period of two years without playing for the first time and was sent on loan to the likes of St. Johnstone, Raith Rovers and Shamrock Rovers at various times. He has, however, been capped for Scotland at various levels.
It'll be interesting to see how Lennon makes up his mind on Cameron as we have no more pre-season friendlies scheduled between now and the season opener against the Arabs on August 14.
