Exeter City is reportedly nearing a deal to sign Aberdeen defender Angus MacDonald. The League One club is aiming to finalize the transfer before the deadline. MacDonald, aged 32 and set to be out of contract in the summer, has seen his standing in the team diminish under Thelin, leading to his exclusion from the last two Aberdeen squads. This situation has attracted the interest of Grecians manager Gary Caldwell, who is keen to acquire the experienced centre half to help steer the team clear of relegation danger. The robust English defender joined Pittodrie from Swindon Town in 2023 and played a crucial role alongside Mattie Pollock in aiding Barry Robson’s Aberdeen side to achieve a third-place finish and secure a place in the group stages of European competition.
