However, the winger’s career at the Easter Road club stalled with a recurring groin injury as he struggled to make an impact in the Hibs first team. He only scored one goal – that came against Alloa Athletic at home in a 3-0 win – in a handful of appearances, with current coach Neil Lennon preferring other players to him.

A club statement read on the Hibs website: “Hibernian can confirm that Dan Carmichael has left the Club by mutual  consent.

“The midfielder made  nine appearances for the  Easter Road side following  his move from Queen of the South last summer, scoring one goal.

“Everyone at Hibernian would like to wish Dan well with his future career.”
