Aberdeen FC --- Sea of Red and White

Aberdeen have announced the signings of Gregg Wylde and Lawrence Shankland.

Wylde joins on a free transfer from Bolton Wanderers, having failed to make an impact in England since a free transfer move from Rangers last year.
The 22-year-old has agreed a three-year deal with Derek McInnes' side.
The manager told the Dons' official website: "Gregg is a player will give us real pace and good balance, which is something I felt the team needed.
"He is a young player who has had a couple of frustrating years with injuries and not playing first team football but he is a player with great ability and is someone who I am sure will be hugely beneficial to the team."

Forward Shankland, 17, was a standout performer in the Third Division last season with Queen's Park, netting 14 times in 39 appearances.
"Lawrence is definitely one for the future with the potential we see in him," McInnes added. "He has shown a great deal of maturity to score as many goals as he did last season in the Third Division and by working closely with Neil Cooper, myself and Tony he will only continue to improve.
"He will now gain the benefit of training full-time and will play regularly at Under 20 level with a view to forcing his way in to the first team."

Wylde and Shankland join Barry Robson, Willo Flood and Calvin Zola in joining Aberdeen this summer.

Sieht auf den ersten Blick echt gut aus was die Dons diesen Sommer machen! Von Sutton sollte man allerdings die Finger lassen meiner Meinung nach.

Wyldes Verpflichtung war ja schon länger klar, dass Shankland noch dazu kommt gefällt mir aber auch :)
