Aberdeen will complete the signing of Montenegrin defender Milos Milovic after the 19-year-old impressed on trial.
Milovic is a free agent following the demise of Finnish club Honka, who are based in Espoo.
The Premier League club, which has competed in Europe in seven of the last eight seasons, has collapsed due to financial difficulties.
Milovic has been on trial at Pittodrie and manager Derek McInnes has seen enough potential in the player, who made seven top team appearances for his former club last season, to offer him a deal, subject to the club gaining a work permit from the Home Office.
The 19-year-old, who is 20 in December, will be eligible to play for the under-20 team in the SPFL Development League next season.
Meanwhile, Aberdeen defender Mark Reynolds has been called into the Scotland squad for next week’s international friendly against Northern Ireland and the European Championship qualifier against Gibraltar.
Gordon Strachan’s side host Ireland on Wednesday, March 25 and Gibraltar on Sunday, March 29. Both games will be played at Hampden.
Dons’ attacker Lawrence Shankland has received his first call-up to the Scotland under-21 squad.
Danny Lennon’s team will face Hungary in Budapest on Thursday, March 26.
Shankland’s team-mate Declan McManus, who is on loan at Greenock Morton, and Caley Thistle’s Ryan Christie, the SPFL young player of the month for February, have also been selected.
