Rory McArdle was at Pittodrie today to put pen to paper on his new contract with the Dons.
The 23 year old defender became Mark McGhee's first signing of the summer after agreeing a pre-contract agreement with Aberdeen in May.
Rory recently won 2 caps with Northern Ireland, making his international debut against Turkey during their summer tour in Santiago.
Speaking to RedWeb earlier in the summer, Dons manager Mark was delighted to capture Rory:
"Rory McArdle represents the type of signings we are trying to make. I want players who are going to improve the squad, are going to be good enough for the SPL but have a little bit of potential about them, some improvement in them.
"He is not the finished article and we don't know how good Rory will go on to become. He has just broken into the Northern Ireland international team so there is a little bit of development there as well which is good as we don't just want to be bringing in players who have done it, seen it and maybe lack the hunger we need. I think it is an exciting signing in that sense.
"Everything we heard about him was positive and from what we saw of him thought he was good enough to join us. In the present market we think we have done really well to sign an international player."
