Dundee Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Alfie Harrison on a short-term contract until January, with an option to extend further.
Wide midfielder Harrison joined the club initially on trial and was involved in friendly matches played during the international break, scoring in one of them.
The 20-year-old started out at Blackburn’s academy before moving to Manchester City at the age of 10.
He then moved to Newcastle United on a permanent transfer at the age of 18, where he stayed until the end of his contract in June.
Alfie Harrison said:
“I’ve loved every bit of my trial. From the first day I stepped into the building, it felt like the right atmosphere. It was somewhere I wanted to show what I’m about, and now hopefully I can push on and keep doing my thing.
“The way everyone has welcomed me, you can see the love for the club. I’d love to be here for a long period of time, but that’s down to me to show.”
Manager Steven Pressley added:
“We had a feeling that when the window closed, our business was complete, but due to unforeseen circumstances around injury, we’ve been forced back into the market.
“As a result of that, Alfie joined us on trial several weeks ago and has worked really hard.
“We think he’s a young player with great potential that can add competition to the squad, and we’re delighted to welcome Alfie on board.”
Everyone at Dundee Football Club is delighted to welcome Alfie and wishes him all the best this season.
