Why we like him
What makes him interesting is his attacking profile from full-back. Last season at Northampton he logged 2,916 minutes while delivering 4 assists, creating 23 chances and scoring twice, so his ceiling for this Pittodrie game is in overlaps, crosses and secondary assists rather than pure shutout points. Aberdeen completed the signing in July 2026 and he is listed in the Starting XI for the August 1 home opener versus Hearts, which gives him immediate playing-time appeal, but note he has 0 appearances in the last 5 game weeks and 0 appearances in the last 15 game weeks for the club, so treat him as a medium-confidence starter rather than a nailed-on fixture; Sorare Edge projects 75.9 points with model confidence MEDIUM. The matchup has a mixed read: Hearts conceded 28 times in 33 Premiership matches last season yet kept 16 clean sheets, so there is both room for attacking returns and a realistic clean-sheet risk.
