Teenage winger Scott Wright pens Aberdeen contract extension

Aberdeen winger Scott Wright has signed a three-year contract extension with the Scottish Premiership club.

The Scotland Under-21 international, 16, has committed himself to the Dons until summer 2017.

Wright made his senior debut earlier this month during the team's Europa League qualifier against Daugava Riga.

"I'm really pleased to fix Scott up on a long-term deal," manager Derek McInnes told the club's official website.

"It's vital that we nurture the players who have come through our youth development system and they all know that, irrespective of their age, if they're performing at the required level, they will get a chance to be part of a successful Aberdeen side."

Aberdeen travel to Spain on Thursday to face Real Sociedad in the first leg of their third-round Europa League qualifying tie.
