Barry Robson has given Vicente Besuijen and Anthony Stewart pre-season to salvage their Aberdeen careers.
The pair have returned to the Dons for training after indifferent loan spells last season. Dutch midfielder Besuijen went to Excelsior but his time there was wrecked by injury. One of Robson’s first moves as manager was to tell the-then captain Stewart he was unlikely to feature and he went out on loan to MK Dons on January’s deadline night.
Robson, when asked what he said to Besuijen and Stewart on their return, said: “Just come in and work hard. You have got the opportunity to perform in pre-season for yourself and myself. They are all good boys who are willing and wanting to do well. They came back in good shape. It is the same with everyone else, there is competition for places here.
