Football career

Aberdeen

Ryan Jack signed for Aberdeen in the summer of 2008.[1] He made his first team debut for the club against Rangers in September 2010.[2] Jack has since become a regular in the Aberdeen first team. He scored his first goal for Aberdeen against Inverness Caledonian Thistle. The strike against Inverness was voted as the club's Goal of the Season for 2010–11.[3] He signed a new contract with Aberdeen in October 2011.[4]

On 13 December 2011 against St Johnstone in an SPL fixture, Jack scored a superb goal from the halfway line to put Aberdeen 2–0 up. The match ended 2–1 to Aberdeen, with Jack's winner helping the Dons move up to ninth in the table.[5]

In June 2013, Jack signed a three-year deal at Aberdeen, keeping him at the club until 2016.[6] He played a pivotal role in Aberdeen's season, helping them into the League Cup Semi-Final, but was injured in January in a league match at Motherwell. He was consequently ruled out for around six weeks, missing the club's League Cup semi-final with St Johnstone.[7] Aberdeen Manager Derek McInnes described Jack as one of the best midfielders in the SPFL.

On 11 January 2015, Jack was named as SPFL Player of the Month for December 2014.[8] On 20 May 2015, Jack signed a one-year extension to his contract, keeping him at Aberdeen until the end of the 2016–17 season.[9] On 24 June 2015, Jack was named Captain for the 2015–2016 season.[10]

International career

Ryan Jack has represented Scotland at Under-16, Under-17, Under-19 and Under-21 level.[11] He has captained the Under-21 side and is on the top ten list for appearances at this level. In May 2013, he received a call-up to the full Scotland squad for the game against Croatia.[12]
