Barry Robson has revealed Aberdeen winger Shayden Morris is set to miss the rest of the season.
The 21-year-old arrived in the Scottish Premiership from Fleetwood in the summer for a six-figure fee but has struggled for game time. Morris hasn’t been involved in recent squads and interim boss Robson said: “Shayden is injured for the season so you’re a player light there as well. He has been in a brace for a while, it was a real bad bit of his hamstring. He’s really struggling with it at the minute so we need to look after him. It’s going to be a long-term one.”
Robson was asked to move into the Aberdeen hot seat after Jim Goodwin was sacked and had to make immediate decisions on the transfer front. He took the call to send captain Anthony Stewart out on loan while Vicente Besuijen returned to Holland with Excelsior on deadline day on a loan deal with an option to buy in the summer.
