Dundee United have signed Ghana under-20 midfielder Mathew Cudjoe subject to international clearance.
The 18-year-old arrives from Young Apostles in his homeland, having previously trained with Bayern Munich.
Cudjoe helped Ghana win the Under-20 African Cup of Nations in March, playing in all six tournament games.
“He is a young and exciting talent that we can’t wait to watch develop further,” said United’s sporting director Tony Asghar.
“As a club we are continuously aiming to attract talented players – both in our local area, in markets we are well established in and in those that have been less explored.
“We have proven we are a club that knows how to develop and give opportunities to young players.
“Mathew is a player we can have high hopes for and we believe we can give him the platform to hone his talent and hopefully have a very strong career.
“Through opportunities created by the rules surrounding Brexit – we have looked at different markets we can look to gain a foothold.
“It has been a great experience working with the leaders at Young Apostles FC to conclude this deal.”
