Club career

On 8 January 2014, Masson signed for Scottish League Two side Elgin City on a loan deal until the end of the 2013–14 season.[2]

On 28 August 2014, Masson joined Brechin City on loan until January 2015.[3] On 23 March 2015, he signed for Brechin on loan again until the end of the 2014–15 season.[4] Masson was released by Aberdeen at the end of the season.[5]

On 26 January 2023, after enjoying much success with Cove Rangers, having been a part of their rise from the 5th-tier Highland League up to the 2nd-tier Scottish Championship, Masson left the Toonsers by mutual consent in order to realise a life-long ambition to emigrate to Australia.[7]

Style of play

Masson is a central midfielder. His former Aberdeen manager Craig Brown described him as being, "a big, strong midfield player" and compared him to Jim Bett.[8]
