Aberdeen Desperate To Keep Ryan Fraser

Last updated : 06 December 2012 By Stand Free Ed

Wigan, Swansea, Burnley, and Huddersfield have been monitoring the 18-year-old this term as he has made his mark on the SPL with a string of fine performances.

Ryan Fraser is out of contract in the summer and free to talk to other clubs next month, so Aberdeen have offered the teenager a lucrative new deal to tempt him to stay at Pittodrie.

And Reds gaffer Craig Brown has pointed to Chris Maguire, Fraser Fyvie, and Jack Grimmer's stunted careers following their poorly-judged moves south of the border.

Brown said: “We’re confident Ryan will choose to stay but it’s now up to him.”
