Jack Ross is eyeing up a raid on his former club for striker Christian Doidge, according to a report.
The new Dundee United boss worked with the hitman during his time in charge at Easter Road with the duo enjoying a good relationship. The 29-year-old endured a difficult campaign last term with his starts limited due to an Achilles issue but he's now fully fit and raring to go.
United officially unveiled Ross as Tam Courts' successor earlier this week with the new man at the helm playing catch up in the transfer market with the new season edging closer. The Tangerines also have a European adventure this term and enter the Europa Conference League at the third qualifying stage. The Dundee Courier report that the target man has been identified as a top summer target.
