'Hardest thing I've ever done' Cammy Kerr leaves Dundee after 20 years at club

An emotional Cammy Kerr has done the “hardest thing” he will do in his career and left Dundee for Queen’s Park following a 20-year stay at his boyhood heroes.

The defender signed a two-year contract in May 2023 and had a testimonial game in November but was loaned out to Inverness in January.

The 28-year-old made 272 appearances for the club.

Kerr said in a video posted on Dundee’s X account: “I’d just like to thank everyone at Dundee for an amazing time, an unforgettable time.

“It’s been something that’s been part of my life since I was five years of age. Growing up, all I wanted to do was play for Dundee.

“I’ve been incredibly lucky to get to do that for so long. I am probably a bit emotional speaking about it because it’s been such a constant in my life.

“When something has been such a big part of your life for so long, it’s difficult to say goodbye.

“I just want to say thank you to the fans for the incredible backing you have given me. It’s been incredible since day one, my SPFL debut against United, singing ‘he’s one of our own’ will always stick with me.

“It’s extremely hard to say how I feel but leaving this club is the hardest thing I’m going to do in my career.”

A club statement read: “Cammy has been a tremendous servant to Dundee Football Club and he has given so much to the club.

“Cammy’s time at Dundee Football Club now comes to an end but he will always be a part of the club’s history and will always be held in the highest regard.

“Cammy Kerr thank you for everything that you have given to Dundee Football Club.”

Queen’s Park soon announced Kerr’s arrival and manager Callum Davidson said: “A large portion of Cammy’s career was spent in the top flight and the experience he possesses will be a great asset to us.”
