Aberdeen fell to a 2-1 defeat against Motherwell at Fir Park on Saturday, marking its fifth loss in six Scottish Premiership fixtures. The result leaves the club in the bottom half of the table. Peter Leven remains in interim charge of the first team following the departure of Neil Warnock earlier this month.
According to BBC Sport, the board appears content to wait until the summer to appoint a permanent successor. However, supporters have expressed frustration at the current run of form. The club has won only two of its last 10 league matches, a sequence that includes a 3-0 home defeat to St Johnstone and a 2-0 loss at Kilmarnock.
Chairman Dave Cormack previously stated that the recruitment process for a new manager is ongoing. Statistics from Opta show that the team has conceded 12 goals across its last six outings. Aberdeen next faces Dundee at Pittodrie on Wednesday evening as it seeks to improve its league position.
