ROBSON EXTENDS CONTRACT

4th September 2019

Dundee United announces that Jamie Robson has extended his contract at the Club. 

The full-back, 21, has signed a three-year deal. 

Jamie enjoyed a run of games towards the end of last season during the Club’s push for promotion and has continued his good form this term – becoming a key member of Head Coach Robbie Neilson’s side. 

The Academy graduate is approaching his tenth year at the Club having joined as a 12-year-old. He has made 103 appearances for United since making his debut in September 2015 in a 3-1 League Cup win over Dunfermline. 

Sporting Director Tony Asghar said: “Jamie can be an inspiration for future Academy graduates and we are pleased that he has agreed terms to extend his time at the Club. 

“At different points during his career, he has had times were he has had to work hard to keep his standards to a level which has allowed him to maintain a first team playing role at such a young age. 

“This is something that our Academy players can look to as an example of hard work, tenacity and continued learning from the coaching staff at the HPC. 

“Jamie has the talent to become a top Dundee United player and we look forward to assisting him with that journey.”
