Aberdeen are set to close a deal for Notts County winger Cal Roberts. The 25-year-old, a standout for the Magpies last season, will undergo a medical ahead of a transfer to Pittodrie for an undisclosed fee.
Left-sided attacker Roberts had entered the final year of his deal with the National League outfit and the club have decided to cash in now over losing him for nothing in a year's time. The ex-Newcastle United youth prospect bagged himself an impressive seventeen goals for County last season and that attracted attention from Dons boss Jim Goodwin.
He said after Aberdeen's win over Raith Rovers in the Premier Sports Cup on Sunday: "We will hopefully have a bit of news on Monday on the attacking midfielder. When Connor Barron is out of the team I think we look really short in there for creativity from the midfield area.
