A “fantastic history and support base”, a new challenge and a chance to win, played a big role in Australian player Scott McDonald’s decision to stay in Scotland and move to Dundee United.

Watch Scott reflect over his choice in this teaser clip from our VT ahead of the IRN-BRU Cup Dundee United v Linfield full match coverage on Saturday 7th October at 17:05, live on BBC ALBA.
