Dundee United today confirmed that Darren Dods, of Inverness Caledonian Thistle, has signed a pre contract and will join the Club on 1 June 2007, on a two year deal.
The 31 year old defender has previously played for Hibs and St Johnstone, and joined Inverness Caledonian Thistle in July 2004. He was made captain of the club at the start of the following season and has been a consistent performer at the heart of the ICT defence in their time in the SPL.
Dundee United Manager Craig Levein said, "Looking to the future, we have a number of very young players in the team and experience is not only required to help them develop, but is vital to the success of any side. I am therefore pleased to announce that Darren Dods has agreed a two year deal with us, as he will bring exactly the type of experience we require.
Darren will also bring solidity to the defence and his leadership qualities are well known and will benefit the team as a whole."
