Jim Goodwin has a decision to make ahead of a first league outing for his new-look Aberdeen squad.
The Pittodrie boss has been busy over the summer, adding nine new faces to his ranks as he looks to massively improve on what was a dismal campaign last term. He may have lost Lewis Ferguson from his midfield after the Scotland international made a £3million switch to Bologna, but that, along with the money received from Liverpool for Calvin Ramsay, has been reinvested in the squad with £1.3million spent so far.
Ylber Ramadani has been added to the engine room, while Notts County loanee Callum Roberts provided another option out wide. Jayden Richardson is Ramsay’s direct replacement at right back and will start this afternoon’s Premiership opener away to champions Celtic. It’s up front where he has the biggest call to make, however. American hitman Christian Ramirez has returned refreshed after being given a few weeks off towards the end of last season to head home across the pond and recharge the batteries. It’s a call that seems to have paid off, with Ramirez bagging four goals in three Premier Sports Cup appearances so far.
