Dundee United boss Mixu Paatelainen has welcomed new signing Kyle Knoyle.

Knoyle arrives on-loan from West Ham United.

Paatelainen said: “Kyle will cover one or two positions. He's a bright prospect.

"He doesn't have too much experience but is a good player.

"There's other players we'd like to bring in to boost our defence. The chairman has always said there is money even if Ryan didn't go so nothing has changed."
