Jamie McGrath has put pen to paper to join Dundee United on a season-long loan deal.
The former St Mirren and Hibs man joins the Tannadice outfit ahead of their Europa Conference League third round qualifier at home to AZ Alkmaar tomorrow night. The Republic of Ireland international has not been short of attention this summer, with Aberdeen also interested. But as exclusively revealed by Record Sport on Tuesday, the winger has opted to make the move to join Jack Ross' side, instead of reuniting with former boss Jim Goodwin, after sporting director Tony Asghar fought hard to bring him to the City of Discovery.
McGrath arrives at Dundee United from Wigan Athletic for the remainder of the campaign in the hopes of more first team football. The 25-year-old made the move to Wigan in January after departing St Mirren. But he has made just four appearances across all competition since. He is likely to slot straight into the squad for tomorrow night's clash.
