Still only 19, the full-back has started all eight of his side’s matches in the league this season, scoring twice.

His form has prompted interest from England and Villa, according to the Scottish Sun.

Hickey has settled well in Emilia-Romagna even after some testing moments last season following his £1.5million move from Hearts. He played 12 times before injury ended his season early.
