Tony Watt's move to Dundee United has been confirmed, officially announcing his exit from Motherwell.

'Well boss Graham Alexander said in his press conference prior to his side's Premiership match with Ross County on Tuesday that a bid from United for Watt had been accepted.

The striker had already signed a pre-contract with the Tannadice side but negotiations have been ongoing over whether he joined United this summer.

Those have now concluded and Watt links up with Dundee United prior to their meeting tomorrow against St Mirren.

A Motherwell statement reads: "Tony Watt has left Motherwell to join Dundee United.

"The striker moves to Tannadice for an undisclosed fee. We thank Tony for his contributions and wish him well for his future career."

Watt's contract at Tannadice will run until 2025.
