It has been a busy transfer deadline day for Dundee United, with two new players coming in and two fringe ones going out.
All four deals were loans.
Reading midfielder Aaron Kuhl was signed until January, and so too was Fulham’s Australian World Cup striker Adam Taggart.
Both men are currently with their national teams Kuhl England’s under-20s, and Taggart Australia’s full squad.
Meanwhile, Robbie Muirhead has been farmed out to Partick Thistle until January and Henri Anier has gone to Hibs for the season.
The Kuhl signing is likely to be the one which will excite United fans most.
The highly-rated 19-year-old had previously been expected to make a switch to Real Mallorca, but that fell through.
Kuhl, the under-21s captain at Reading, made his breakthrough at the Madejski Stadium last season under Nigel Adkins, making eight appearances during the opening couple of months of the campaign.
But he has yet to feature under Steve Clarke, with his last senior appearance coming back in October last year against Derby County.
Tangerines boss Jackie McNamara said: “He’s a strong lad and a great passer of the ball. He will bring a good presence and his experience of playing in the Championship will be important.
“He is someone who can add something to our squad and that is paramount when signing players at this time.
“Aaron is with the England Under-20s squad currently, so we will decide if he is ready to go right into the first team squad for the Kilmarnock game once he has trained next week.”
