The 2001-02 campaign was a season of exotic flair and mid-table consolidation for Dundee FC as The Dark Blues finished 9th in the Scottish Premier League. Leading the charge was the prolific Argentine striker Juan Sara, whose 11 goals proved vital in a campaign built on the star power of manager Ivano Bonetti's 'foreign legion,' featuring new signings like Georgian star Temuri Ketsbaia. It was a memorable year that also saw the club compete in the UEFA Intertoto Cup and remains a defining chapter of the Italian manager's ambitious era.
