Matai Akinmboni is set to agree a loan-deal with Dundee from Premier League side, Bournemouth.

Dundee and Bournemouth have agreed a season-long deal for the 19-year-old, which is subject to the Bournemouth man getting a GBE and a work permit.

Akinmobi has been in training with the Dens Park side for the past two weeks, has overcome his injury worries, and has been impressing in training under Steven Pressley.

The Premier League side still have full faith in the American Under-20 international after signing him from the MLS, having joined from DC United and agreed a long-term deal with the English side.

After their derby victory at Tannadice on Saturday, Pressley admitted that he would be keen on bringing in two more players, as well as a winger.

Matai made 17 first-team appearances in the USA, as well as having a spell with Loudoun United FC, having come through the youth ranks at DC United since Under-15 level.

Dundee have also very recently snapped up Bradley Fink and Bobby Wales on loan, both of whom made their debuts in their derby victory over next-door neighbours Dundee United.
