Biography
Dundee announced the loan signing of Yan Dhanda on a season-long loan from Hearts, much to the delight of the Dundee support who were eager to see some creativity injected into Steven Pressley's new squad.
The Englishman started his career as a youth for West Bromwich Albion before making the move to the Liverpool Academy.
Dhanda would then sign for Swansea City and and made and explosive debut for the Welsh club as he scored on his debut with his very first touch of the game.
Following a hugely successful move to Ross County, the tricky midfielder made a move from the Highlands to the Capital as he joined Hearts under freedom of contract.
