BALLANTYNE SIGNS CONTRACT EXTENSION

2nd March 2017

Under 20's defender, Cammy Ballantyne has secured an extension to his contract at Dundee United until June 2018. Cammy joins fellow team-mates Scott Allardice, Graeme Taylor and Logan Davie who recently committed to an extension with the Tangerines. Cammy has been a stand out during his successful loan period at Montrose while also remaining one of the shining lights in the Development League for United. Originally from Westwood in East Kilbride, Cammy Ballantyne played with East Kilbride Youth Club before joining the youth ranks at United in 2007. He agreed on professional terms at Tannadice, signing a three-year contract on June 26, 2013, and left school at Duncanrig Secondary to pursue his football career. Since then, he has regularly featured for the United U20 side in the Development League, while also playing for Scotland at U17 level. In 2014, Cammy represented his country in the qualifying and the final stages of the U17 European Championship, reaching as far as the semi-final of the tournament. He made his United first-team debut as a substitute in May 2016 towards the end of the 2015-16 season.
