Aberdeen are in talks with their captain, Graeme Shinnie, over a new contract and have made him an offer. Shinnie is out-of-contract at the end of the month. The offer is on reduced terms, would not include the same guaranteed playing time, but would include coaching opportunities. The Aberdeen manager met with Graeme Shinnie yesterday morning and is hoping he will make a decision over the next 24 to 48 hours. Discussions include options for playing and a coaching role with younger players, which has been done with previous players. The manager stated that it is something they are all keen to facilitate, but it depends on whether that can work for Graeme financially, family-wise and playing-wise. The manager also said that they would like Graeme to be involved in the future.

The Dons are already in discussions with captain Graeme Shinnie about a new one-year deal.

Aberdeen have started discussions to extend Graeme Shinnie’s contract. The skipper's contract is due to expire at the end of the season, and he is expected to extend his stay at Pittodrie. The final details have yet to be finalised, and there is also a possibility of a coaching role in the future. The Aberdeen manager stated that they are speaking with Graeme Shinnie about where he sees himself and his role. Robinson insisted Shinnie’s new contract is deserved and not something given without being earned.

Graeme Shinnie's contract is set to expire in the summer, and he has not had any discussions with sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel concerning a new deal. As of now, no talks have taken place regarding a contract extension.
