Dundee United are ramping up plans for their near certain return to the Premiership by targeting a move for Scotland defender Stuart Findlay.
The 24-year-old has been a rock in the centre of the Kilmarnock defence since his loan arrival in 2017. He signed a permanent deal in 2018 and has been a major factor in their success since.
The powerful stopper has a year left on his current deal and any move would require doing a deal with the Rugby Park club that would be likely to involve a significant fee.
Daily Record Sport understands that the defender is on a list of talent United boss Robbie Neilson is considering as he looks to make a big impact on the top flight.
Findlay has been a regular in Scotland squads since his former boss Steve Clarke became the manger and got a goal on his debut against San Marino.
He came through the youth system at Celtic before moving to Newcastle in 2016 where he made one first team start.
