Dundee have signed Lincoln City's Dutch defender Lewis Montsma on a six-month deal with an option to extend it further.
Montsma, 27, came through several academies in the Netherlands before breaking into senior football with Dordrecht.
He moved to Lincoln in 2020 and has made 108 appearances for the Imps, scoring 11 goals.
However, he has since struggled with injuries and has not played a single league game for Michael Skubala's side this season.
"I'm very happy to be here," he told Dundee's club website.
"As soon as my agent said Dundee were really interested, I was like this is for me. It's a good change for me in my career; I hope to play a lot of games here.
"I spoke to Ethan [Hamilton] on the phone, he told me about how the place is, it looks very nice here, really looking forward to getting started."
In an open letter to Montsma, Lincoln sporting director Jez George said: "Over the next five and a half years you proved to be not just a special player, but also a special person.
"On behalf of everyone connected to Lincoln City, who have all shared all or part of your journey, we want to thank you for everything and wish you every success for the next chapter of your career at Dundee FC and beyond.
"Go well, Lewis. Always an Imp."
