ZEKE CAMERON LOANED TO COWDENBEATH FOR REMAINDER OF 2024/25
17th January 2025
Dundee United can confirm Academy graduate Owen Stirton has joined William Hill League One side Montrose on loan until the end of the season.
Stirton, a product of our Baldragon Academy performance school, has already bagged 14 goals across all competitions at U18s and senior level this term.
The towering frontman made Terrors history in November as he became the first product of our youth system to score on their William Hill Premiership debut, nodding home from close-range against Ross County in second-half stoppage time.

On league business, Montrose are looking to close the gap on Alloa Athletic, who currently hold the final promotion play-off place in the third tier.
Five points separate the sides at present, albeit the Links Park Dynamo have a game in hand over their Clackmannanshire foe.
The Tannadice talent could be in line to make his debut for his temporary employers at the National Stadium this afternoon as Stewart Petrie’s men go head-to-head with Queen’s Park in the Scottish Cup Fourth Round.
Stirton will also have the chance to team up with United legend Sean Dillion in Angus, whom he would have supported from the terraces as a young Arab.
Everyone at Dundee United wishes Owen and Montrose the best of luck for the remainder of 2024/25.
