Dundee manager Tony Docherty has been speaking to the media before his side’s trip to Celtic this weekend.
Here are the main points:
-
Docherty says the club are still awaiting international clearance for newly-signed Mexican midfielder Victor Lopez, who has joined on a year-long loan from Liga MX side Queretaro.
-
The Dundee boss feels “you can see now we are getting the benefits” from their strategic partnership with Mexican club CF Monterrey, as well as the one with Burnley.
-
On further transfer business, Docherty says: “We are still working on things at the moment, both incoming and outgoing.”
-
Amid continued speculation surrounding Lyall Cameron, who is out of contract in the summer, Docherty will be doing “all I can to make sure he remains a Dundee player for as long as we can”.
-
But Docherty thinks with the new signings and players coming back from injury “there is a real strengthening of the squad happening”.
-
He dismisses any notion Celtic will have a European hangover and stresses the importance of concentrating on their own business.
-
With just one defeat in six games, Docherty praises his injury-hit squad for going “over and above” and says belief has been boosted by recent results.
