Argyle linked with Aberdeen midfielder

Plymouth Argyle are reported to be among four Championship clubs who are looking to sign Aberdeen midfielder Connor Barron, as well as Rangers and Italian Serie A side Hellas Verona.

The 21-year-old is set to make a decision on his future next week, according to Scott Burns of the Daily Record, who stated that Barron's contract with Aberdeen 'is set to expire and he can move outside of Scotland for just over £500,000 in training compensation.'

Barron graduated from Aberdeen's academy into their first team and has gone on to make a total of 57 starts and 19 substitute appearances, and scored two goals.

Rangers gave him a 4 year contract plus I believe both parties have the option of another 1 year as well ….I spose hallett & parky shit there pants they like 2 years deals cos the quality of players we sign and they do turn out to be shit they just let em run down the contract and let em go

I see Aston Villa have signed CF Lewis Dobbin from Everton. He only made a handful of appearances for Everton so is unlikely to feature much for Villa this season.

Hopefully Villa will continue to trust Argyle to develop their younger players and send him down for 6 months tutelage under Rooney & Co.
