The Club today confirms goalkeeper, Tom Ritchie, has agreed a deal that will see the highly rated player remain contracted to the Dons until 2024.

The 18-year-old, who has been capped for Scotland at U16 and U17 level, has made a number of appearances on the bench for the first team.

Tom, an AFC Youth Academy graduate, signed a professional contract in 201 and is currently on loan to Highland League side, Huntly FC, for the season.

Manager Stephen Glass is pleased to see another young talent commit their future to the Club.

He said: “Both Gordon Marshall and I have been very impressed with the progress Tom has made so far this season.

“He has applied himself in the correct manner and has performed well when he has trained with the first team.

“His loan spell with Huntly has offered him exposure to senior football, and more importantly, some vital game time in a competitive league.”
