Arnaud Djoum admitted he was thrilled to join Dundee United because his previous stint in Scottish football was the best of his career.
The 33-year-old Cameroon international enjoyed four fruitful years as a key man at Hearts between 2015 and 2019 before moving to Saudi Arabia.
In his time at Tynecastle, Djoum played with current Dundee United players Liam Smith and Tony Watt, while he also got to know the current Tannadice management team of Liam Fox and Stevie Crawford, who were coaches with the Jambos.
