Defender MacKenzie among eight Aberdeen departures
- Published
Jack MacKenzie is among the departures from Scottish Cup winners Aberdeen this summer.
The 24-year-old left-back, a Dons youth academy graduate, played 123 games for the club and signed off with cup success after a substitute appearance in the final win over Celtic last weekend.
Ross Doohan - who played 18 times last season - and fellow back-up goalkeeper Tom Ritchie also depart as free agents. Having agreed a pre-contract in February, Republic of Ireland midfielder Jamie McGrath moves to Hibernian after 16 goals in 81 Dons appearances.
Returning to their parent clubs after Pittodrie loan spells are strikers Kevin Nisbet and Oday Dabbagh, winger Jeppe Okkels and defender Alfie Dorrington.
Manager Jimmy Thelin said: "We would like to thank each and every player leaving the club for their effort and contributions while with Aberdeen and wish them all every success in their future careers.
"Some of these boys have been here for a long, long time and departing a club is always emotional. But they can look back with pride and I am so pleased many of them are leaving with a winner's medal from last weekend."
