Ex-Hearts forward Christian Nade signs for Dundee

DUNDEE’S move for former Hearts Christian Nade was completed today.

The 29 year-old has been training with the Dens Park club for a fortnight and talks over a deal until the end of the season have now been concluded. Nade, who once was the subject of a £550,000 bid from Hull City, has not played since last March however the paperwork problems with his last club, PTT Rayong in Thailand, that prevented a move earlier in the season to East Fife have now been overcome.

Manager John Brown brought in Stephen Hughes on Monday from East Fife and with former Scotland striker Craig Beattie ruled out for two months with a knee injury Nade is expected to join Hughes at Dens Park in time for Saturday’s top of the table clash with Hamilton Accies.
