Docherty’s position at United was previously held by new head coach Tam Courts.

However his duties will be different from those of his predecessor as the Tangerines plan to expand the remit of the post.

Docherty will be responsible for tactical analysis at first team level and scouting the club’s opponents.

His role will also involve working closely with the Tannadice outfit’s academy as they look to integrate more players into the first team.

The Terrors are looking to move away from the traditional managerial figurehead model used in Britain, favouring a more continental approach with their coaching set-up.

Prior to his spell in Croatian football, Docherty was a coach and analyst with the SFA’s Performance Schools.

He then spent time working in China as head of coaching for Xi Guan.

That was followed by a teaching spell at Real Madrid’s University, where he created and delivered courses on coaching, technical and executive roles in football.
