SWEDE OF LIGHT

Aouchiche’s delight over Karlsson

- BY SCOTT BURNS

ADIL AOUCHICHE feels Aberdeen's ambition has been shown by the signing of new hero Jesper Karlsson.

The Swedish international arrived on deadline night on loan from Bologna and has quickly established himself as a Pittodrie favourite.

Karlsson has three goals in his last two games and was an inspiration in firing them to their first league win, the 4-0 demolition of Dundee on Sunday.

The winger had previously worked with Jimmy Thelin at Elfsborg and moved from AZ Alkmaar to Bologna for around £9million two years ago.

“Jesper is a really good player, Aouchiche said: “He shows his talent every day in the training sessions and on Sunday he was very good on the pitch.

“He scored a good penalty and his second one was really nice. He deserved his two goals. Everyone here wants to be the best players we can be, so we are really happy to have Jesper here.
