Dons delight at Aluko deal

ABERDEEN have secured Sone Aluko on a permanent deal after the teenager impressed while on loan last season.

The 19-year-old Birmingham winger has signed a three-year deal, after spending August on loan at Coca-Cola Championship side Blackpool.

The England under-19 internationalist played 20 games for Aberdeen, scoring three times, before returning south at the end of last season.

Aberdeen director of football Willie Miller said: "We all know what Sone is capable of and he's a flair player who has the ability to change the course of a game."
