Aberdeen youngster Kieran Ngwenya is set to join Kelty Hearts on-loan.
The Malawi international is poised to move to the League Two title favourites for the season.
Aberdeen, however, will have the option to recall the full-back in January.
Ngwenya was also of interest to Cove Rangers, having had a spell on loan there last season.
The 18-year-old will now join Dons teammate Connor Barron, who is also on loan with Kevin Thomson’s side.
The Dons have also let striker Michael Ruth join Falkirk.
The attacker will now move to the Bairns where he will work under former Aberdeen coach Paul Sheerin, who is now in charge of the League One promotion pushers.
