Dundee appoint ex-Celtic midfielder Hartley

Dundee FC have appointed Paul Hartley as their new manager.

The 37-year old former Celtic and Heart of Midlothian midfielder has replaced John Brown at Dens Park after he left the Dees by mutual consent.

Hartley departed his role with Alloa Athletic last month despite leading the Wasps to successive promotions.

"Dundee FC are delighted to announce that Paul Hartley has today become the new manager of the club," a statement from Dundee read.

"Paul has been appointed manager of Dundee FC and he comes to the club with a successful past in both playing and managing in this country.

"As a player, Paul won all the top prizes in the Scottish game as well as representing his country on 25 occasions.

"In management, he already has two promotions to his name after only two and a half years in the hot-seat."
