Scottish Premier League side Dundee United have offered Argentinian striker Damian Casalinuovo a move to Tannadice after the player impressed on trial.

The 22-year-old has caught the eye of United boss Craig Levein during two trial stints on Tayside.

The former Velez Sarsfield star, who does not require a work permit as he holds an Italian passport, has impressed Levein with the manager believing that Casalinuovo is very much the one for the future.

“I’ve made my mind up on Damian and we’re going to give him a contract,” Levein told the Daily Record.

“He’s been here twice and has impressed me. He’s just a young boy and I’d put him in the same category as the likes of Mihael Kovacevic and Andis Shala when they came over.

“It’s an opportunity for him to show what he can do.”
