After his release from Brisbane Roar, Bob Malcolm has returned to Scotland to sign with First Division Dundee.

Dundee boss Jocky Scott is happy that he has added a player of Malcolm's vast experience at such a vital time of the season.

"With the number of games coming up, we need as many available players as possible and to have added one who has played at the level Bob Malcolm has is very pleasing," he said.

"We are trying to win our league and that's a position he has been in with Rangers on several occasions and knows exactly what's required. He can play in midfield, but it is as a defender I've signed him and there's a possibility I'll use him tomorrow."
