Ramadani, Duk and Miovski celebrate the win over Rangers<\/p>\n

Aberdeen have pulled off a major coup in the transfer market by bringing back the man that has helped to make their recent millions.<\/p>\n

The Dons have re-appointed Darren Mowbray to the club.<\/p>\n

The former head of recruitment has returned to Aberdeen on a full-time basis.<\/p>\n

He is working in unison with sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel<\/a>, head of recruitment Nuno de Almeida and manager Jimmy Thelin<\/a>, as they look towards the January window.<\/p>\n

Mowbray – the brother of former Celtic boss Tony – was responsible for identifying and bringing in the likes of Bojan Miovski<\/a>, Ylber Ramadani, Pape Gueye, Duk and Shayden Morris who have all been sold on for major profits.<\/p>\n

Miovski went to Girona for a club record of \u00a36.8 million, Ramadani went to Lecce in a seven figure deal and Duk<\/a> went to Leganes for six figures last January.<\/p>\n

Scottish Cup hero Shayden Morris was also sold to Luton this summer for a six figure fee, as was Gueye who the Dons sold to Turkish club Kasimpasa in the last window.<\/p>\n

Mowbray first moved to Aberdeen as head of recruitment from Burnley in 2021.<\/p>\n

He was there for two successful years before he was headhunted by Southampton two years ago.<\/p>\n

Mowbray left St Mary\u2019s in March.<\/p>\n

He was working for Aberdeen on a consultancy basis but is now back on a permanent deal.<\/p>\n

Aberdeen have made it clear that they want to use the player trading model to turn over players and to develop.<\/p>\n

That has dipped with the recruitment since Mowbray departed.<\/p>\n

Aberdeen are hoping that Mowbray can help revive that along with their fortunes on the pitch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Darren Mowbray was responsible for several key signings that went onto to make millions for the club 11:12,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":274794,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[13717,32528,218,30724,112684,8058,566,101,56,54,55,112685],"class_list":["post-274793","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-aberdeen-fc","tag-bojan-miovski","tag-football","tag-jimmy-thelin","tag-luis-duk-lopes","tag-scottish-premiership","tag-southampton-fc","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-ylber-ramadani"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=274793"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274793\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/274794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=274793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=274793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=274793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
