Midfielder Ylber Ramadani has completed his move from Aberdeen to Serie A side U.S. Lecce.

The Albanian international departs the Dons after only one season at Pittodrie.

He made 44 appearances after joining the club from Hungarian side MTK Budapest last summer.

The Dons rejected an initial bid from Lecce but accepted an offer earlier this week, which is understood to be worth around £1.2million with add-ons.

Lecce confirmed Ramadani, 27, has signed a three-year deal with an option for an additional year.

Aberdeen manager Barry Robson admitted he is disappointed to see the player depart the club.

He said: “Despite only being here for a season, Ylber’s commitment and desire to do his best for the club was clear for all to see.

“I’ve no doubt his experience at Aberdeen, and within the Scottish game, will have made Ylber a better player and prepare him for the challenges which lie ahead in Italy.”

Ramadani was an unused substitute in last Saturday’s 3-2 friendly win at Charlton Athletic and threw his strip to the Dons supporters at full-time.

His high-energy, combative style has made him a popular figure among the Dons support.

Ramadani made it clear to the Dons that he was desperate to make the move to Italy. Hellas Verona had also been linked with a move for the Dons player but Ramadani’s preference was for a move to Lecce.
