Dundee boss Tony Docherty is “thrilled” by the recruitment of Scott Tiffoney as he gears up for the cinch Premiership next season.

The winger has agreed to join the newly-promoted Tayside club when his contract with Partick Thistle ends at the weekend.

Tiffoney was in the Jags side which lost to Ross County in the Premiership play-off final.

Docherty, who took over as Dundee boss last week, told the club’s official website: “I am thrilled that Scott will be joining the club. He is a player that I have monitored and admired for a long time and is a player that will get the fans off their seats.

“When he has the ball, he can make things happen, he can create chances for others, and he can create opportunities for himself.

“He has a tremendous work ethic and wants to improve as a player.

“He is committed to the club and will be moving up here and I’m really excited about having him at the club.”

Tiffoney began his career with Greenock Morton before moving to Livingston in 2018 and then to Partick Thistle.

He has also had loan spells at Clyde, Morton, Ayr and Partick Thistle.
