The team has a hefty total market value, sitting comfortably at around £16m based on valuations from one of the most comprehensive resources in the footballing world, Transfermarkt. A feast for statisticians and fantasy football enthusiasts alike, this figure is a testament to the level of investment and ambition being shown at Pittodrie.

A squad boasting of 29 players calls Aberdeen home. The average age, hovering at a mellow 25, displays a youthful energy, accentuated by the promising mix of experience, ambition, and pure raw talent. Indeed, many a pundit has lauded this blend of youth and experience as the backbone of Aberdeen's success.

This season, the hardy men of Aberdeen have stood shoulder to shoulder in competition across various platforms. Their journey has seen them battle for honours in the Premiership where they currently find themselves in 8th place. They pushed ahead with grit to the Quarter-Finals of the League Cup and Scottish Cup. A notable highlight includes their gallant effort in the Europa League Qualifiers that ended in the Play-Offs, and an admirable stance secured within the league phase of the Conference League. The plethora of competitions shows a club unafraid to test their mettle against a diverse range of opponents, a sure-fire way to foster improvement, resilience, and success.
