Aberdeen seeks to hijack Rangers' bid for Dundee's Lyall Cameron

Aberdeen is making a push to sign Dundee midfielder Lyall Cameron, who is out of contract this summer, as they compete with Rangers for his signature. Despite struggling in the Scottish Premiership, Aberdeen's management is keen to bolster their squad and believes they offer a viable path for Cameron's career development, citing successful player transitions in the past. Rangers have been in talks to secure Cameron on a pre-contract agreement, but Aberdeen is attempting to convince him that he would receive more regular first-team opportunities at Pittodrie. Dundee's manager remains optimistic about retaining Cameron, although he acknowledges that the player is exploring options. Any club that signs Cameron will owe compensation to Dundee due to his development there. The ongoing competition for Cameron underscores the heightened interest in young talent within Scottish football.
