Polish defender Jaroslaw Fojut has left Dundee United to join Pogon Szczecin in his homeland.

Fojut, 28, had been expected to leave Tannadice and has signed a three-year deal with the Ekstraklasa side.

The player's family had already returned to Poland, having failed to settle in Scotland.

After spending a year in Norway with Tromso, Fojut joined United on a two-year deal in 2014 and made 39 appearances, scoring five times.

He began his senior career with Bolton Wanderers and had loan spells with Luton Town and Stockport County before a three-year spell in the Polish top flight with Slask Wrocklaw preceded his move to Norway.

Last week, United signed former Queen of the South defender Mark Durnan, 22, on a two-year contract.
