Jonny Hayes reveals the two Aberdeen minutes which decided his future as double dose of Rangers pain put to the side

Jonny Hayes has revealed the negotiations over his new Aberdeen extension took just two minutes.

The experienced winger, who hopes to make it seven wins on the bounce when Rangers come to town tomorrow, is now in his second spell at the club and was desperate to remain beyond the summer and get the club back into Europe. Hayes is now one of the senior players at 35 but manager Barry Robson, after handing out the new deal, claimed he could see him playing beyond 38.

The Irishman admitted: “I suppose I’ll have to trust him. He’s the manager, isn’t he? I don’t take things year by year, I take them week by week. It was a no-brainer. I’m enjoying my football, I feel fit and I’m contributing to the team. I enjoy being here. It was one of these where, as soon as they offered it to me, it was done and dusted in just two minutes.”

Aberdeen have charged clear in third thanks to a revival under Robson, who inherited a team in the bottom six and seriously out of form. The Dons now look favourites to finish best of the rest and achieve their goal of getting back into Europe.

Former Celtic star Hayes said: “It’s enjoyable playing European football but I have always wanted it to last a little bit longer. It’s something that entices players up, it’s something that gets the fans excited about looking towards next season.

“It is a big part at Aberdeen Football Club having that European football and it’s something that we strive for. We weren’t successful last year and that’s something we are trying to rectify.”

Aberdeen had been in Europe for the previous eight seasons before this campaign but if they were to finish third the prize could be European football until Christmas, if Celtic or Rangers were to lift the Scottish Cup.
