McInnes’ side won four out of five games in February, and ended Celtic’s undefeated run in the Premiership.

Rooney scored in all three of the Dons’ Premiership matches in February, and hit the back of the net in their League Cup semi-final win against St Johnstone.

The awards follow Aberdeen’s victory over Inverness Caley Thistle on penalties in the League Cup final.
