Craig Brown hits out as Fulham snatch Grimmer for pittance 

FULHAM are on the brink of snatching superkid Jack Grimmer away from Aberdeen and have entered the race for Rangers target Mervan Celik.

The Craven Cottage outfit are expected to secure a deal for 17-year-old midfielder Grimmer after Dons boss Craig Brown failed in a last-gasp bid to convince him to sign a new deal at Pittodrie.

Under FIFA rules, they only have to pay compensation for his training and development at Aberdeen and that is not expected to be much more than £200,000.

Craig Brown: It's frustrating to see Sone Aluko doing so well with Rangers

ABERDEEN boss Craig Brown admitted his frustration at facing Sone Aluko as he bids to end a 21-year hoodoo at Ibrox.

More than two decades have passed since the Pittodrie side last won in Govan and the Dons boss is searching frantically to strengthen his squad before Saturday's match.

Former Pittodrie star Aluko is exactly the type of winger that tops his list and while Brown wanted to hold on to the Nigeria star, Aluko decided to join Gers where he's quickly become a key player.

Brown: forget Aluko, search is on for missing link

Aberdeen manager Craig Brown is searching for the missing link to provide creativity to his team and will only be able to look on in envy as Sone Aluko turns out for Rangers against his Dons on Saturday.

The Nigeria international left Pittodrie last summer and after several months of unemployment signed until the end of the season with the SPL champions.
