Former Ipswich Town midfielder Scott Fraser has joined Scottish Premiership side Dundee FC on a one-year deal.
The 29-year-old midfielder was a free agent after terminating his contract with League One side Charlton Athletic on transfer deadline day.
Fraser joined the Addicks from Town in January 2022, where he made 78 appearances and scored 10 goals during his two-and-a-half years at the Valley.
He spent the second half of last season on loan at fellow Scottish side Hearts and now returns to his homeland on a full-time basis.
Fraser said of his Dundee move: “It’s good to get the deal done, it feels like it’s been a long time coming and I’m happy to finally get it over the line.
“I got a good feeling for the manager and I know Si [Simon Murray], who has told me good things about the club and I’m looking forward to getting started.
“I just want to get back to enjoying my football, it has been a while since I’ve felt that enjoyment.
“From the chats I’ve had with the gaffer it seems like he will suit me and bring that enjoyment out of me and help me get back to my best.”
The Scot was one of the 19 signings during the Paul Cook ‘Demolition Man’ summer of 2021, joining from MK Dons, with the reputation of being one of the best attacking midfielders in the third tier.
However, he rarely got the chance to operate in his favoured central attacking role under Cook and following just 14 league starts, Kieran McKenna opted to cash in on a player who was ‘desperate to go’.
