The team known as Aberdeen took form back in 1903, finding its home at the Scottish Pittodrie Stadium. With a lengthy history in Scottish football, they have etched their name quite firmly in the annals of the game.

It's not a club without substance, mind. The squad boasts of a market value hovering around £17m (according to Transfermarkt), and consists of 29 lads who run about with an average age of 25. A youthful squad, one might say, with an eye towards the future.

The current season has seen Aberdeen grafting in 5 different competitions. Some would say they're spreading themselves too thin, but only time will tell, won't it? They've been plying their trade in the Premiership, finding themselves in 6th place, while they managed to reach the Quarter-Finals of the League Cup. The Scottish Cup saw them bowing out in the Fourth Round, while they made it as far as the Play-Offs in the Europa League Qualifiers. Then there's the Conference League, where they're in the thick of the League Phase. A team that's been around the block, you could say, and not one to shy away from a challenge.
