Derek McInnes has handed former Celtic and Rangers midfielder Liam Burt the chance to impress on trial at Aberdeen.
The 21-year-old was at Pittodrie for Tuesday night’s thumping win over Hamilton as a guest of the Dons after leaving the Hoops in the summer.
Burt had been training with Barnsley last month and also had a short stint on trial at Sunderland.
But the five-times capped Scotland Under 21 international is still on the lookout for a club as a free agent and has taken up the offer of a trial stint at the Dons.
McInnes said: “We just invited Liam to come and train. He will train with the development squad over the next few days and we will have a look at him.
“Because we knew we had a couple of practice matches coming up we thought it was a chance to get him in to have a look and for him to have a look at us.
“It’s no more than that."
Burt watched on from the stand as Aberdeen prepared for a weekend clash with Celtic by sweeping Accies aside in a 4-2 thriller.
