Following the conclusion of the summer transfer window we can now provide the following update to supporters.

Defender Jayden Richardson has left the Club.

The right-back, who arrived at Aberdeen in the summer of 2022 from Nottingham Forest but following loan periods at Stockport County and Colchester United last season has struggled to find game time since the start of this season. The 23-year-old made 24 appearances for the Dons.

With eight summer arrivals, the departure of Jayden draws to a close our transfer activity for this window.

“We would like to wish Jayden the best of luck with his future career and I would like to thank him for his effort and professionalism during his time here”, said Dons boss Jimmy Thelin.

“In terms of deadline day, the process of adding any new recruits has ended.

“It is important to maintain calm and focus and only add players who can enhance our current squad and build long term value for Aberdeen.

“I am very pleased with the response from the players already at the Club, and our new players have integrated well, building strong foundations which will continue to grow over the weeks and months ahead.

“Overall, we are satisfied with the business we have done over this summer. We have added some exciting options and the work on improving the squad will be on-going as we prepare for January and Summer 2025.

“Our full attention now turns to the match tomorrow against Ross County and we look forward to another impressive backing from the supporters in Dingwall.”
