Lawrence Shankland, who moved to Aberdeen last summer from Queens Park, will move to Dunfermline on a season long loan deal.

Midfielder Jamie Masson has agreed to join League Two side Elgin City for the remainder of the season.

Meanwhile, Scott Rumsby has extended his current loan deal with Stranraer.
