Sean Wallace: Why Aberdeen should launch an audacious loan bid for Bojan Miovski.

Miovski, a former Aberdeen custodian, has struggled for playing time at Girona in Spain’s La Liga. Aberdeen should make an audacious effort to sign Bojan Miovski on a short-term loan until the January transfer window. Miovski has struggled to make an impact in the Spanish top flight since his club-record £6.8 million move from Aberdeen to Girona last summer. The former Dons’ goal hero has only scored four goals for Girona, two of which came against lower division Extremadura in the Copa del Rey.

According to reports from Spain, Miovski’s future at Girona is in doubt following a disappointing debut season. The North Macedonian international appeared in only 20 minutes of Girona’s final ten La Liga games, as the club successfully avoided relegation. It’s surprising Miovski hasn’t made more of an impact at Girona, given his talent.

If you don’t ask, you don’t get

The summer transfer window could be an opportunity to launch an aggressive effort to bring Miovski back to Pittodrie on a short-term loan. It would be an unlikely opportunity, but if you don’t ask, you don’t get. Aberdeen signed European Cup champion Hans Gilhaus from PSV Eindhoven and Charlie Nicholas from Arsenal because they had the foresight and determination to ask. Various eras. However, the ethos remains the same.

In a heartfelt parting statement following his transfer to Girona, the striker wrote: “Once a Don, always a Don.” If certain conditions are met, it may be possible to bring him back (albeit this is a long-shot).

Multi-million rated striker Miovski

A permanent move for the striker would be far above Aberdeen’s budget, given Miovski is under contract until the summer of 2028. Despite a lack of goals in his rookie season, Miovski will still be valued in the millions by Girona. His pay would likewise exceed the Dons’ budget. But might Girona pay a significant piece of salary to reduce the loan club’s outlay? According to reports in Spain, Girona manager Michel and the club’s sporting directors intend to discuss Miovski’s and other players’ futures this summer. If Miovski is unlikely to play in the next season, he should consider a short-term loan to Aberdeen.

Obviously any slim potential of a loan hinges on Miovski not being sold in the summer.

Guaranteed European league action

In Aberdeen’s benefit, they can secure European league play. The Dons will compete in the Europa League’s play-off stage. If the Reds win the play-off, they will enter the Europa League, with a further eight games guaranteed until mid-January. If the Dons lose the play-off, they have the option of joining the Conference League, where they will play until mid-December.

A loan arrangement might benefit all three parties: Aberdeen, Miovski, and Girona. Aberdeen created a platform when they signed Miovski for £535,000 from Hungarian club MTK Budapest in the summer of 2022. Miovski’s loan stint with the Dons in Europe could once again serve as a springboard for his return to the Girona starting lineup.
