Aberdeen boss Stephen Glass has backed Brighton’s Teddy Jenks to become the latest loan star to make an impact at Pittodrie. Leicester City midfielder James Maddison, a signing target for Arsenal, was a major hit during a six month loan spell in 2016-17. Keeper Danny Ward, now at Leicester City and starring for Wales at the Euro 2020 finals, was on loan at Pittodrie in 2015-16 and a key player. Following his loan spell at Aberdeen Maddison went on to become a first team regular at Norwich City which was the catalyst for a £22.5m transfer to Leicester City. England international Maddison is so highly valued at Leicester City the club have valued him at £80m in light of recent interest from Arsenal.
