A-Jay sets sights on delivering at Ibrox

DUNDEE: Striker could not turn down Dundee move

- NEIL ROBERTSON

A-Jay Leitch-Smith is hoping to deliver goals for Dundee at Ibrox, before eagerly awaiting the delivery of his new baby.

The 27-year-old striker was delighted to join the Dark Blues on loan until January from Shrewsbury Town last week.

However, his partner Alison has other things on her mind.

Leitch-Smith said: “My agent spoke to Dundee a few weeks ago and they were interested.

“It all happened quickly on deadline day,” he added.

“My girlfriend Alison is pregnant and due this month.

“She wasn’t very happy when she first found out we were moving to Dundee.

“But the opportunit­y to come up here and play games was something I could not turn down.

“Alison has come up with me but she is going back down to England on Saturday to have the little one.

“But she will rejoin me once it’s all settled again.

“Hopefully I can get a few goals up here,” he said.
