Jim Goodwin aims to lessen Dundee United's reliance on loans as he embarks on a significant team rebuild at Tannadice, focusing on permanent contracts over temporary deals.
He stated, "It seems to be one big rebuild after another. I feel it's the way it's been for probably the last five or six years of my managerial career."
Goodwin emphasized the need to ensure a competitive squad, targeting success in the league and other competitions, including the Europa Conference qualifier.
He reflected on the previous season's success, mentioning, "Our points return in the opening 11 fixtures was really good. I think since August last year we never dropped out of that top half."
