Richard Odada has been loaned to OFK Beograd to gain essential game time. Jim Goodwin, the manager, expressed his belief in Odada's talent and potential, indicating that the loan should not be seen as a dismissal but as an opportunity for the player to gain regular playing experience and return to Dundee United in improved form for the pre-season. The Kenyan international, who transferred to Dundee United in the last transfer window from Philadelphia Union, has been working on catching up with pre-season preparations and has encountered difficulties in breaking into a team that currently ranks third in the Premiership. Goodwin highlighted the significant investment made in Odada, noting that he is an ideal No.6 midfielder with the physical attributes desired for that position. The loan is viewed as a chance for Odada to keep his competitive edge and come back to Tannadice prepared to make a significant impact.
