At the time of signing he had gained four Scotland International caps. His time at Pittodrie was not a success, although he made 34 appearances in his first season, with the defence shipping goals and the team playing poorly. With the start of the 2022-2023 season, Manager Jim Goodwin built a new defence and there were no more appearances for Bates.
