Reply | Scott McKenna - Aberdeen
at 11:35 18 Jul 2018
Greetings my Welsh friends.
Aberdeen supporter here in peace.
Was browsing your board to see what you made of the McKenna rumour and thought I'd take the plunge and give you an Aberdeen supporters viewpoint on him.
McKenna only broke into the team around September last year and in a short space of time became one of, if not the first name on the teamsheet.
By the end of the season he was an established internationalist and has played in Scotland's last four friendly internationals including captaining the country against Mexico. Whilst he is far from the finished article he is continuing to improve game on game.
The thing is that he signed TWO contract extensions during the course of last season and is contracted to AFC until the summer of 2023. He is certainly one of the hottest prospects in Scottish football at present. Our manager is keen to keep him until he has played circa 100+ first team games. We don't have to sell, but given the new training facility and ground under construction we could probably use the cash. He WILL leave AFC at some point, but we will not let him go cheaply given contract position and the fact he is happy here. I sense the figure of £10m is paper talk, but half that plus add ons would probably ensure you get him. The thing is that IF he continues to improve, bigger clubs than your (no offence meant) will come sniffing around. |
