CRFC are delighted to confirm Dundee United defender Ross Graham has joined us on loan for the 2020/21 campaign.

The 19-year-old left-sided defender impressed when he turned out for us in the closed doors friendly victories over Fraserburgh and Banks o’ Dee.

Ross goes straight into the squad for Saturday’s Betfred League Cup opener against Hibs at Balmoral Stadium. He will wear the number 20 shirt.

The manager said: “We would like to thank Dundee United for giving us the opportunity to continue working with Ross. He really impressed us in the two friendly games and whilst training with us.”

“Ross is one of the most promising defenders around at the moment, very composed, a great passer of the ball and very competitive. I’m confident he will do well for us and the loan spell also gives Ross the opportunity to push for regular first team football, which will be beneficial to him at this stage of his career.”

Ross has been with Premiership side United since 2012 and has advanced rapidly through their Academy system.

He has already featured in first team squads with the Tangerines and was on the bench for their Premiership clashes with Rangers and Ross County this term.

Ross was on loan to League Two side Elgin City for the second half of last season and played in their 3-0 victory over us at Borough Briggs in February.

Everyone at Cove Rangers would like to welcome Ross to the club and wish him well during his time at Balmoral Stadium
