Last updated : 09 August 2010 By BBC Sport

The 33-year-old Finn, capped 12 times for his country, is a free agent after being released by Cardiff City.

"Talks will continue today with the hope of a quick agreement," St Johnstone said on their website.

Enckelman began his career at his hometown club TPS Turku in 1995, enjoying a four-year spell there before joining Aston Villa.

Spells at Blackburn Rovers and Cardiff City followed and he was released by the Welsh club at the end of last season.

Enckelman will vie for the number one jersey with Graeme Smith at McDiarmid Park.
