The Club has this evening signed goalkeeper Gary Woods on a short-term loan deal from English League Two side, Oldham Athletic.

The experienced 29-year-old, who spent three seasons with Hamilton Academical, joins the Dons following an injury to goalkeeper Tomas Cerny.

The Englishman, who started his senior career at Doncaster Rovers before spending time at Watford and Leyton Orient, was also a Scottish League Cup winner with Ross County in 2016.

Derek McInnes said, “It’s come to light in recent days that Tomas will require an operation and is likely to be out for a number of weeks. We therefore felt the need to sign an experienced goalkeeper to provide cover, and also provide competition for Joe in the months ahead.

“We’re delighted to get Gary, a player who knows the league well, on board.”

Everyone at the Club wishes Gary well during his time with us.
