Melbourne Victory right‑back Joshua Rawlins has signed a three‑year contract with Dundee United, becoming the Scottish club’s third pre‑contract acquisition from the A‑League. The 21‑year‑old will join in the summer for a modest compensation fee, with performance‑related add‑ons built into the deal. United hope the addition bolsters their defensive options for next season.

Defender Tom McIntyre completed his loan spell at Aberdeen after returning to Portsmouth for hamstring treatment. The 27‑year‑old featured in his final game before the injury ruled him out for the remainder of the campaign. Aberdeen lose a versatile back‑up, while Portsmouth must manage his rehabilitation without a clear timetable.

Rangers will let 22‑year‑old winger Oscar Cortes depart permanently, as manager Danny Rohl does not see him in next season’s plans despite a productive loan in Argentina. On the other side of the border, Scott Wright continues his cruciate recovery, hoping a strong finish with Dundee improves his chances at Birmingham City. Meanwhile, 19‑year‑old Kai Andrews’ loan at Hibernian may be compromised by Coventry’s Premier League promotion, tightening competition for midfield spots at his parent club.
