Goalkeeper Nick Suman is to join Aberdeen as free agent in June when his contract with Cove Rangers expires.

The 25-year-old Australian has spent two seasons at Balmoral, making 59 appearances for the League One side.

With Ross Doohan and Tom Ritchie moving on, number one choice Dimitar Mitov had been the only goalkeeper remaining in the Dons squad.

"He is a goalkeeper with a commanding presence, a strong record for clean sheets and he has demonstrated excellent qualities during his time in Scottish football," said Aberdeen manager Jimmy Thelin.

"Nick had interest from other clubs, but we strongly believe this will be the right environment for him to take the next step in his career. He will be a valuable addition to our squad and will provide healthy competition for the number one spot."
