Hibs have announced the signing of Swedish international Melker Hallberg on a three-year deal. Patrick McPartlin takes an in-depth look at the 23-year-old midfielder
Hibs boss Paul Heckingbottom has made Swedish star Melker Hallberg his ninth signing of the summer, the midfielder having agreed a three-year deal at Easter Road.
Lewis Stevenson has insisted no-one should be too downhearted with Hibs’ start to the season, pointing out that Paul Heckingbottom’s side have lost just one match in seven.
HIBS fans have been successful in their bid to bring club legend Lawrie Reilly’s league winning medals back to Easter Road - despite the collection selling for more than six times the asking price.
Striking the right balance in midfield has been a conundrum for Hibs for most of the past year, pretty much since John McGinn sealed his move to Aston Villa last August.
Hibs striker Christian Doidge has revealed his determination to win over the fans, hoping that one day he’ll become as popular as team-mates Flo Kamberi and Scott Allan.
Having watched Paul Heckingbottom use his third substitute, Christian Doidge admits he would normally have taken off his shinpads and loosened off his boots laces, resigning himself to an afternoon on the bench.
