The Kirkcaldy club had also been linked to Thomson's friend and former Hibs team-mate Scott Brown however Fleetwood Town are expected to appoint the Celtic captain as their new manager next week.
That leaves Thomson in the frame to hold talks with the Championship club’s board after a fifth-placed finish in the second tier this season.
