Plymouth Argyle Sign Scottish Cup Winner Jack MacKenzie from Aberdeen

Jack MacKenzie, a 25-year-old left-back and Aberdeen academy graduate, has signed a three-year contract with Plymouth Argyle, recently relegated to League One. MacKenzie played a key role in Aberdeen's historic Scottish Cup victory over Celtic, marking the club's first trophy in 35 years, despite suffering a serious head injury shortly before the final. He is the third summer signing for Argyle, joining Coventry City's Jamie Paterson and Exeter City's Caleb Watts, with Argyle's Head of Football Operations praising MacKenzie's versatility and adaptability. MacKenzie's departure is part of a broader exodus from Aberdeen following their cup win, with several players, including back-up goalkeepers and loanees, also leaving the club. Aberdeen manager Jimmy Thelin expressed gratitude to departing players, highlighting the emotional nature of their exits and pride in their achievements. MacKenzie hopes to make a strong start at Argyle, joining their preseason campaign after recovering from his injury.
