He returned to Hibs in the summer but admitted he was keeping his options open.
The midfielder featured in friendlies against Dunfermline Athletic and Stoke City but wasn't in the squad for the Arsenal game on Tuesday.

“I wanted to challenge myself and I played a lot of games and came up against teams like Fenerbahce, Galatasaray and Besiktas, top class teams like that. So, I am glad I went."
