that could be to our advantage.

 

no takeover for the hunnery means no new players so maybe he'll hold off discussions wi anyone else until it sorts itself out. if it falls through then why not aberdeen for a while? even if he wants to go to the filth in the long run.

I doubt very much it was Mcghee's interest that alerted other clubs.  The boy's one of the hottest properties in the MLS just now and that alone will attract a lot of interest.

 

Clubs cast their scouting net far and wide these days, there are very few markets in the footballing world that aren't saturated with scouts from all over.

This from SkySports:

 

Aberdeen manager Mark McGhee has conceded defeat in the club's attempts to sign USA international Stuart Holden.

 

The Aberdeen-born midfielder is set to become a free agent as his contract with MLS side Houston Dynamo expires at the end of the month.

 

McGhee was keen to bring the 24-year-old back to Scotland, but concedes he may be unable to match the wages on offer from rival teams.

No surprise

 

"It's no surprise that he is attracting interest from bigger clubs," McGhee told the Evening Express.

 

"It's likely we've missed the boat on that one now because there is no way we will be able to compete with the type of wages he is likely to be offered.

 

"It's frustrating but that's the world we live in."
