ABERDEEN have completed the loan signing of Birmingham forward Greg Stewart.
The versatile attacking player has joined on a season-long deal less than a year after leaving Dundee for the West Midlands.
The 27-year-old was twice nominated for the PFA Scotland player of the year award at Dens Park before making six starts and 17 substitute appearances under three managers at St Andrew’s.
Dons manager Derek McInnes told his club’s official website: “Greg is a player who I have admired for a while and I am delighted he has joined us for the challenge ahead.”
“Last season was disappointing personally, I didn’t play as much and I want to prove to myself what level I can get to,” Stewart said.
“I’m at that age where I need to be playing football. Aberdeen is a massive club. The chance to work under the manager [Derek McInnes] as well was always in my thinking. Hopefully he can get the best out of me.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
