Slovakian, Patrik Myslovič, arrives on loan to purchase deal

Aberdeen FC this evening confirms the signing of Patrik Myslovič.

The 21-year-old will join the Club from MSK Zilina initially on loan, subject to successful completion of the UK immigration process, with the Dons retaining an exclusive option to acquire the player on a permanent basis this summer.

The highly rated midfielder made his senior debut at 16 years old and has played over 100 senior top flight games despite his young age. He has also captained the side.

The Slovakia U21 International, who recently was called up to the Men’s A squad for a training camp, was much sought after by manager Jim Goodwin and he’s delighted with his latest addition to the squad.

He added: “Patrik is a player who Darren Mowbray and I have long admired, and we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to get this deal over the line for a few months.

“He is a very technical player, left footed, with an extensive range of passing. He’ll provide a different option in this area and hopefully bring a new attacking dynamic to the team.

“Patrik has recorded a high number of assists and he is also a very good ball striker who can score goals from inside and outside the area.

“The January window is a notoriously tough time to do business and it is important we bring in quality not quantity. We will continue to look at other areas in which we can strengthen the team to help to ensure a successful second half of the season.”
