Miovski has made 23 appearances for North Macedonia Aberdeen have received a club record fee for striker Bojan Miovski from La Liga side Girona. The 25-year-old North Macedonia forward scored 44 goals in 91 starts after signing two years ago from MTK Budapest. The deal for Miovski is reported to be worth up to £6. 5m, , external comfortably eclipsing the £4. 2m Aberdeen received from Liverpool for Calvin Ramsay. Girona finished third behind Real Madrid and Barcelona last season and will play in the Champions League this campaign. Miovski, who has passed his medical and signed a four-year contract, will start training with his new team on Friday. The forward was in tears as he kissed the club badge and was serenaded by Dons fans after coming on as a late substitute in the home win against St Mirren last weekend. The deal represents the largest fee received by a Scottish club other than Celtic and Rangers for an outfield player, with only goalkeeper Craig Gordon's £9m switch to Sunderland from Heart of Midlothian in 2007 surpassing it. "Bojan has been a magnificent number nine for Aberdeen and although we are clearly sad to be losing him, we're also delighted he has achieved such an exciting move, " said Dons chief executive Alan Burrows. "He deserves it, and we thank him for his significant contribution. The deal is a good one for the club and further strengthens the player trading strategy adopted and driven by Dave Cormack and the board over a number of seasons. "Our recruitment department, together with the manager, continue to explore ways to strengthen the squad between now and the end of the month. " New manager Jimmy Thelin has signed forwards Peter Ambrose and Topi Keskinen, midfielders Ante Palaversa and Sivert Heltne Nilsen, goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov and defenders Noah Mc Donnell and Gavin Molloy this summer. Miovski began his professional career aged 18 in the North Macedonian First Division with Bregalnica and played for Rabotnicki, Makedonija and Renueva before joining MTK in Hungary in 2020.
