"Mason is a left footed centre-back who we have brought up from England. He has signed from Woking FC, having played for Fulham from age seven to fifteen, alongside Harvey Elliot, and thereafter for Oxford United. Mason really impressed when he came up on trial at the end of last season. He has very strong leadership qualities and communicates well. "We hope we can give him an opportunity to come to Aberdeen and help him with his football development. We have a lot of very good contacts at clubs in England now and I must praise the work done by Youth Academy Head of Recruitment Jim Fraser in bringing Mason to the club. We get a lot of tips about players down south and Mason came highly recommended. We think we have someone here who can really develop over the length of his contract."
