After moving to MK Dons from Bolton, Aaron Collins was expected to excel in Sky Bet League Two, given his impressive performance in the 2024/25 season where he scored 19 goals and had five assists in 55 games. However, his debut was marred by a shoulder injury that kept him out for six to eight weeks. Collins faced another setback when he pulled his hamstring in a training session, sidelining him for two months.
Despite these challenges, he persevered and eventually found his form, scoring a double in a 4-0 win against Harrogate. Although he suffered an ankle ligament injury mid-season, Collins was determined to make up for lost time and contribute to the team's promotion bid. With two games left, MK Dons are on the cusp of promotion, and Collins is eager to play a significant role in securing their spot.
Having experienced promotion with Bristol Rovers in 2021/22, Collins knows the thrill of achieving this milestone and is cherishing the opportunity to be part of it again.
