Ethan Hamilton has completed a permanent move to Scottish Premiership side Dundee FC for an undisclosed fee.
The midfielder joined the Imps from Accrington Stanley in August 2023 and has made 82 appearances and scored three goals.
He has made five league appearances off the bench this season and started the Carabao Cup win at Harrogate Town.
Director of football Jez George said: “There has been interest in Ethan this summer and, following the signing of Ivan last week, we decided that if a club met our valuation we would allow Ethan to leave for regular first team football.
“Ethan has a desire to start games every week, so this became an opportunity that is right for all parties. Ethan is a top character, who leaves with the respect of everyone at the club and we sincerely wish him well in the next chapter of his career at Dundee.”
