Kevin Nisbet Makes Exciting Return to Scottish Football with Aberdeen Loan Move
In a move that has captured the attention of Scottish football fans, Millwall striker Kevin Nisbet has joined Aberdeen on a season-long loan deal. The Scotland international, who made his mark in the Scottish Premiership with Hibernian before moving to the English Championship, is set to bring his striking prowess back to Pittodrie.
Nisbet, who signed for Millwall in June 2023 for a reported £2 million, has spent the past year in England where he scored five goals in 29 appearances for the Lions. Despite a challenging season marred by injury, Nisbet’s return to Scotland is highly anticipated. The 27-year-old forward had several options, both in England and within Scotland, but Aberdeen’s early-season form and ambitious project proved irresistible.
“When I heard Aberdeen were interested, it was a no-brainer,” Nisbet revealed. “I had options elsewhere, but the way the team has started this season was a big factor in my decision. Aberdeen is a massive club with a rich history, and I wanted to be a part of that. After talking with the manager and understanding his vision and playing style, I’m excited about what we can achieve together.”

Aberdeen’s manager, Jimmy Thelin, echoed Nisbet’s enthusiasm, describing him as a "fantastic addition" to the squad. “Kevin’s drive and desire to join us are really exciting,” Thelin said. “He is a proven goalscorer with an impressive track record in Scottish football. His arrival not only strengthens our squad but also adds healthy competition in the attacking areas. We believe his energy and skill will make a significant impact on our supporters.”
Nisbet’s arrival is timely, given that Aberdeen recently saw the departure of Bojan Miovski, who left for Girona in a club-record transfer. Nisbet will be tasked with filling the void left by Miovski, who had been a key player for the Dons.
The Scottish international began his career with Partick Thistle before making a name for himself at Dunfermline Athletic, where he scored 57 goals over two seasons. His impressive performances earned him a move to Hibernian in 2020, where he scored 39 goals in 101 appearances, leading to his subsequent transfer to Millwall.
Having struggled with injuries over the past couple of seasons, Nisbet is eager to regain his form and contribute significantly to Aberdeen’s campaign. He could potentially make his debut for the Dons in their upcoming home match against Kilmarnock if all the necessary clearances are in place.
With Nisbet now in the fold, Aberdeen fans have much to look forward to. His return to the Scottish Premiership is expected to bolster the team’s attacking options and provide a boost as they aim to build on their promising start to the season.
