Declan Gallagher in Dundee United transfer sights as St Mirren defender close to Jim Goodwin reunion
dailyrecord.co.ukDundee United are closing in on a deal for Declan Gallagher. United have agreed a fee with St Mirren and are on the verge of thrashing out a deal with the Scotland international.
Jim Goodwin previously worked with Gallagher when he was at Aberdeen. Ironically, he sold him to St Mirren last summer. Goodwin admitted that he was closing in on a central defender and was looking to seal the deal before the weekend friendly with Carlisle.
