Chris Wilder has taken Watford until the end of the season in what will be seen as a blow to Aberdeen. The Dons are on the look out for a new boss after sacking Jim Goodwin at the end of January following a poor set of results.

The Irishman was eventually given his marching orders by chairman Dave Cormack after a 6-0 thumping by Hibernian at Easter Road.

Former Aberdeen midfielder Barry Robson has been in interim charge since Goodwin departed and has overseen a change in results for the Pittodrie club.

Record Sport reported earlier this week that Wilder held talks with new chief executive Alan Burrows over the managerial vacancy.
