Arrival number two: Aaron Nemane joins Rotherham United
ROTHERHAM United today brought a League Two promotion-winner to AESSEAL New York Stadium as they made Aaron Nemane their second summer signing.
The 28-year-old Frenchman has agreed a two-year deal and could wear Millers colours for the first time in Friday evening's opening pre-season friendly, against non Parkgate at Roundwood.
Last season, he was part of the MK Dons' squad that climbed from the fourth tier into League One, making 42 appearance under former Rotherham boss Paul Warne.
Nemane, who can play anywhere on the right flank but is more of an attacker than a defender, was a free agent after being released by the Dons.
He follows forward Fabio Tavares through the door at New York and Rotherham are hoping to further swell their numbers in the next few days.
Nemane - pronounced ‘Ner-man’ - passed a stringent medical this afternoon.
The Amiens-born Nemane, who came through Manchester City's youth ranks, is no stranger to promotions, having been part of the Notts County squad that went up from the National League to League Two in 2023.
In two seasons with MK he racked up 84 outings and was last term used by Warne primarily as a winger or wing-back, scoring the Dons' Goal of the Season with a long-range effort in 1-0 win over Swindon Town on Boxing Day.
The Millers are in the fourth tier this season following relegation so Nemane would appear to be a good fit for them.
The club have tightened their medical procedures at the insistence of new head of football Steve McClaren in a bid to avoid a repeat of their well-publicised injury problems during the 2025/26 campaign when the casualty count often ran into double figures.
Nemane had a loan spell at Glasgow Rangers when he was with City and has also played for Torquay United.
