Former Ireland international leaves Aberdeen

Stephen Gleeson’s contract with the Scottish club was cancelled by mutual consent.

FORMER IRELAND INTERNATIONAL Stephen Gleeson has left Aberdeen, the club have confirmed.

The 31-year-old Dublin-born midfielder, whose former clubs include Birmingham and MK Dons, joined the Scottish Premiership side from Ipswich in June 2018.

However, Gleeson has found himself surplus to requirements at Pittordie Stadium, having made just one league appearance this season, prompting a cancellation of his contract by mutual consent.

The Cherry Orchard youth product has four Ireland caps, the last of which came in a 3-1 friendly loss against Mexico in June 2017.

    Crazy that a club as big as United haven’t gotten anybody better than Fred and McTominay to anchor midfield.

    @Aidan Prior: Crazy that what Roy Keane has to say on matter gets equal billing with actual decision in story and headline.

    @Brian Murphy: The new season isn’t 2 days old and the name Roy Keane is already upsetting some people on here.

    @Leonard Barry: You’ve well and truly missed my point. He can say what he wants about it and I have zero issue with the point he makes but not everything he says is worthy of a headline.

    This is what happens when you start another season with McFred. Long season ahead.
