Kenny McLean will finally make his move to Norwich City. The midfielder signed for the Canaries in January but was able to finish the season with Derek McInnes’ side.
Attackers Ryan Christie and Greg Stewart will return to Celtic and Birmingham, respectively. McInnes has previously stated his intention to try and bring Christie back to Pittodrie, though Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers said he would like to see the player in action before making any decision.
Along with Stewart, three other loanees returning south of the border are Dominic Ball (Rotherham United), Chidiebere Nwakali (Manchester City) and Freddie Woodman (Newcastle United).
Meanwhile, Aberdeen have confirmed in a statement that talks are ongoing with defender Anthony O’Connor over a new deal, while back-up keeper Danny Rogers has been handed a two-year extension.
