Dundee FC today confirmed that they have pulled off a signing coup by bringing defender Steven Caulker to the club.

The former Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool man joins on an 18 month deal and will help the Dees in their fight to avoid relegation to the Scottish Championship.

Caulker had previously been linked with a move to Celtic after the player opened up publicly on the personal problems plaguing his career, but it appears any road to Celtic Park will travel through Dens first.

It's certainly an intriguing deal and with over 100 Premier League appearances, his experience and quality will undoubtedly be a benefit to Dundee.

It's also one which is capturing the imagination of Celtic fans, with some believing he's a better signing than last month's capture of former Dundee man Jack Hendry and others predicting that joining Dundee will only last until end of the season, simply a dress rehearsal for a move to the Hoops this summer.
