'Fearless ball carrier' Dolcek joins Dundee United

Ivan Dolcek has joined Dundee United on a season-long loan with option to buy from Slovak club Dunajska Streda.

The left-sided Croatian, 25, can operate at full-back or on the wing, with his new manager Jim Goodwin describing him as "a fearless ball carrier".

"He's a really exciting addition to the playing group," said the Tannadice boss.

"Ivan's immense technical ability combined with a first-class delivery into the area make him a constant threat on either flank.

"He also has an eye for goal both inside the box and from further afield, capable of producing moments of magic which can change the course of a game in an instant.

"I have no doubts our supporters will thoroughly enjoy watching him."

Dolcekt has previously play for Slaven Belupo and Hajduk Split and has been capped up to under-23 level.

He follows Amar Fatah, Krisztian Keresztes, Dario Naamo and Isaac Pappoe in joining United on loan this summer, while Panutche Camara, Bert Esselink, Iurie Iovu, Yevhen Kucherenko and Zac Sapsford have arrived on permanent deals.
