Dundee Utd eager to keep hold of Hull fullback Townsend

Dundee United want to keep hold of on-loan Hull City fullback Conor Townsend.

United boss Jackie McNamara has admitted he would be open to tying down the 21-year-old on a permanent deal at Tannadice.

Speaking to the Dundee Courier, McNamara said: "We will look at his situation again in the summer. We have him for the rest of the season and he has been very good for us.

"It was disappointing when he got injured but in the last few games he has brought balance back on the left-hand side.

"It will depend on Hull but from my point of view he has been very good for this club."
