Jason Cummings: Striker moves to Dundee from Shrewsbury
- Published
Jason Cummings scored a double for Shrewsbury against Liverpool in last season's FA Cup
Former Rangers and Hibernian striker Jason Cummings has joined Dundee from Shrewsbury Town on an 18-month deal.
The 25-year-old broke through at Easter Road, winning the Scottish Cup with Hibs in 2016 before a transfer to Nottingham Forest in 2017.
He scored six goals in 18 games on loan at Rangers in 2018 before temporary spells with Peterborough and Luton.
He signed for Shrewsbury in 2019 but was largely used as a substitute by the League One side.
But his best moment for Shrewsbury was in January 2020 when he came off the bench to rescue his side from being 2-0 down against Liverpool at Oteley Road, scoring twice to earn an FA Cup fourth-round replay at Anfield.
Capped twice for Scotland during his time at Forest, Cumming scored 55 goals in 98 games at Championship level, for Hibs.
Dundee, currently third in the second tier, have also landed Tottenham defender Malachi Fagan-Walcott, 18, on loan until the end of the season.
Earlier this week, the Dens Park side signed Paul McMullan on loan from city rivals Dundee United ahead of a more permanent move in the summer.
