St Mirren midfielder Kenny McLean will travel north to sign for Aberdeen, Press Association Sport understands.

The 23-year-old will undergo a medical and complete the formalities on a three-and-a-half year deal.

The Dons will pay a six-figure fee for the former Scotland Under-21 player, who has 18 months left on his contract.

In January, League One side Fleetwood Town had a £150,000 bid rejected for McLean, one of Scottish football’s most highly-rated players.
