The German, 52, was sporting director at American MLS club St Louis before leaving in August after a five-year tenure.

He boasts a solid CV having held roles with Hoffenheim and Fortuna Dusseldorf in his homeland.

Dons chiefs held talks with Pfannenstiel, left, over the weekend and he took in Sunday's 4-O triumph over Dundee at Pittodrie.
