ARGYLE are set to complete the signing of former Arsenal and Reading goalkeeper Graham Stack.

Stack, a free agent, has been training with the Pilgrims during their pre-season programme and is now close to securing a deal.

The 26-year-old has impressed Argyle boss Paul Sturrock.

"Graham is a Premiership and Championship goalkeeper," said Luggy. "He's seen it, done it, and got the T-shirt.

"He has had a good week's training with the players and adapted very well. He is really hungry for this opportunity, and I like hungry players.

"I feel like it was a no-brainer.

"He's good kicker, and a good talker - his communication with the back four is excellent.

"He has a good character, and seems very good around the changing-room, which I feel is a bit quiet at this moment at time. We need some effervescent players, and he definitely fits that bill."

However, Luggy said that he would also keep an eye on Slovakian international goalkeeper Lubos Hajduch, who also has been on trial at Home Park.
