A recruitment shake-up is on the way and how will it impact Hibs’ player trading?
Transfer business is something that has been criticised at Easter Road since the Gordon family came to Leith on July 2nd, 2019. Hibs will turn to Bournemouth head of recruitment analysis Garvan Stewart to help with that, amid Cherries owner Bill Foley’s minority stake in the club through Black Knights Football Club..
January is looming. While a busy run of games that head coach David Gray will hope sparks a run of wins to drag them away from the bottom of the Premiership is imminent, thoughts of who comes into the team in January will possibly be on the minds at HTC.
But what signings have Hibs made under the Gordon family? Here are 80 who’ve been brought in since July 2nd 2019. Some were or have been signed as key first team members, others as projects.
There are hits, misses and a bit of the in-between throughout managerial reigns of Paul Heckingbottom, Jack Ross, Shaun Maloney, Lee Johnson, Nick Montgomery and now Gray. Have a look.
37. David Marshall
Played the role of number one for a couple of seasons before retiring in the summer. Now Hibs technical performance manager. | SNS Group
38. Jair Tavares
Didn't get a look-in under Johnson, who brought him in. A mini-revival under Montgomery before dropping out the picture. Didn't fit into Gray's plans either and now in and out the Motherwell team on loan. | SNS Group
39. Nohan Kenneh
Liberian midfielder is actually still at Hibs, but far out the picture after loans at Ross County and Shrewsbury Town. Johnson dubbed him "a real coup" and now back with County. | SNS Group
40. Martin Boyle
The club hero left Easter Road in a £3m deal in January 2022 but his Saudi Arabian adventure hit the skids when Al-Faisaly were relegated. Signed in a deal Johnson said "won't be cheap." | SNS Group
