Aberdeen next manager latest as Ricardo Rodriguez a 'contender' and swirling Gordon Strachan rumour addressed

The hunt for the next boss of Aberdeen remains ongoing, however, it will take on a different look with chairman Dave Cormack dealing with something greater than a potential hire.

And the 63-year-old will now step away from the club he adores ahead of triple heart bypass surgery this week and that means incoming chief Alan Burrows will oversee the search for the next boss. Barry Robson and Steve Agnew's record reads one win and two defeats in interim charge after Jim Goodwin's hasty exit after the 6-0 pasting against Hibs.

It's abundantly clear Northern Lights have been dimmed since the days of Derek McInnes at the helm with both Stephen Glass and Goodwin unable to get Aberdeen heading into the right direction. And that's what makes this appointment so important for a fanbase in desperate need of real belief. Chris Wilder was an early frontrunner but the former Sheffield United will not be heading to the Granite City. So where does that leave Aberdeen? Let's dig into the latest as a wildcard name enters the frame.
