Dundee have won the race to sign League Two goal-scoring sensation Charlie Reilly.
Courier Sport understands that the 21-year-old has agreed to join the Dens Park club in the summer.
The Dark Blues have been long-term admirers of the player, who previously played with Hamilton Accies and Partick Thistle.
The free-kick specialist has really kicked on in Coatbridge, scoring 23 goals from midfield this season so far, including SIX braces.

Dundee were one of a number of clubs who considered trying to sign him in January.
Brechin City may soon have to find a way of nullifying Reilly’s threat from wide areas, as Rovers are currently bottom of League Two and in real danger of going into the pyramid play-off.
Whether Dundee are in the Premiership or Championship next season, it’s set to be a hectic summer of the pitch at Dens.
Only three players are under contract – Tyler French, Shaun Byrne and Zak Rudden – while young stars in the making, like Lyall Cameron, are attracting interest from the top flight.
