It’s transfer deadline day and it could be a busy one with Aberdeen, Hearts and Hibs all potentially doing deals, and they won’t be the only ones. Here is the lay of the land as we stand.
Aberdeen hope to land Dabbagh
Aberdeen are hoping they finally found the solution to their striking issue in Oday Dabbagh, who are are trying to land in a deadline day loan deal from Charleroi.
Dabbagh is a Palestine international and their record goalscorer. Dons’ head of recruitment Nuno De Almeida knows him from his time in Portugal.
It comes after Aberdeen’s hopes of landing Marko Lazetic on loan from AC Milan were ended.
Jimmy Thelin also hoping to sign another defender and is down the line with an overseas target, reports the Daily Record.
Meanwhile, Angus MacDonald is poised to move out in the other direction and join Exeter.
Hibs – Youan, Bushiri and Miller interest
We told over the weekend how Elie Youan could quit Hibs for Stoke after a £1.5million offer was lodged. Blackburn Rovers previously had their approach knocked back.
He is not the only Hibee attracting interest with the Scotsman reporting Lewis Miller and Rocky Bushiri are wanted men.
Hearts Harry Milne pursuit
Hearts are in talks with Partick Thistle left-back Harry Milne and want to conclude a deal today, reports Hearts Standard.
The 28-year-old is out of contract in the summer so wouldn’t command a large fee and would provide back-up for James Penrice.
He may not the only Tynecastle addition with scope to strengthen in further areas.
Motherwell Miller latest
Motherwell will hope Lennon Miller remains their player beyond today but Celtic are the latest club circling.
The Scottish Sun reports the Hoops have already had a bid rejected but may return.
Here is what Well CEO Brian Caldwell has said on the starlet: “To be bluntly truthful, we’ve had a couple of offers from a club who are miles away from that valuation of what we would deem Lennon Miller to be selling.
“We are not desperate to sell the player. We have always said from day one it’s got to be right for Lennon, it’s got to be right for the football club.
“We are not just going to accept any kind of offer for Lennon Miller. I believe he’s statistically in the top seven players in the world for his age and in terms of midfield so he’s an exceptional talent, we all know that. If and when Lennon does leave it will be right for us and it will be right for Lennon at the right time.”
Motherwell have had two offers for Cove Rangers goalkeeper Nicholas Suman rejected as they look to strengthen further after getting Ellery Balcombe on loan from Brentford.
Dunne deal
Charles Dunne’s short-term deal with St Mirren has come to and end and he has signed for Coleraine in the NIFL Premiership.
