Contents

Club career

Pawlett was brought up in Aberdeen since a young age [2] and made his Aberdeen debut in February 2009, coming on as a substitute in a 5–0 Scottish Cup victory over East Fife.[3] He made his SPL debut for Aberdeen as a substitute in a 3–1 loss to Celtic on 2 May 2009, and he made his first league start in a 2–1 loss to Rangers two weeks later.

In January 2010 Pawlett sustained a knee injury which required surgery. A month later it was reported the injury will keep him out of action for the remainder of the 2009–10 season.[4]

On 30 April 2011, Pawlett scored his first goal for Aberdeen in a 1-0 win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

International career

Despite being born in Hull,[5] Pawlett was selected for the Scotland under-19 team in November 2009. This selection followed a rule change by the four Home Nations that allows British passport holders to play for any of the Home Nations, provided that they have been at a school for at least five years in that nation; Pawlett was educated in Banchory.[5]

Awards

Pawlett won the Clydesdale Bank Premier League Young Player of the Month for November 2009.[6]
