Established in 1893, Dundee Football Association have spent over a century plying their footballing trade at their home ground, Dens Park. Unsurprisingly, this East coast club has weathered myriad seasons, boasting a notable history within Scottish football dating back to the tail end of the 19th Century.
In strictly financial terms, the current value of the Dundee side appears to rest at approximately £6m, as reported by Transfermarkt. An intriguing figure, poised in a balance between the club's prestige and the cold realities of market forces.
At present, Dundee maintain a squad of 26 men, their average age resting at a spry 24 years. This youthful energy might provide the side with the spark and vivacity necessary for success, or it could, perhaps, reveal an absence of maturity on the pitch. Only time will serve to illuminate this particular question.
As for the current season, Dundee have dipped their toes into three separate competition waters. Within the Premiership, they currently languish in 9th place - a middling position that speaks volumes about their battle. Their endeavours in the League Cup have led them to Group C, while their Scottish Cup journey has thus far taken them to the Fourth Round. Simply put, despite their somewhat mixed efforts, Dundee continue to doggedly compete, embodying the spirit of football from their perch at Dens Park.
