Two weeks ago marked the end of Nick Montgomery's first transfer window as Hibs manager.
The boss brought in the likes of Myziane Maolida and Emiliano Marcondes to Easter Road with the former scoring in his second outing in a Hibs shirt.
However, it is not always so simple for the new signings at Easter Road to come in and hit the ground running. Many have joined the Leith-based club with high expectations placed upon them but the nature of the modern game, with players and managers changing so frequently, that they do not live up to those presumptions.
This does not make them all bad players, only that they could not find a way to contend with the way of life in Leith or the manager under whom they worked.
As we head into the final matches before the Scottish Premiership split comes into effect, here are 25 Easter Road players of the past who ended their time at Hibs with what could have been tales..

13. Miquel Nelom
The left-back played over 100 times for Feyenoord. There was little evidence of that pedigree in Edinburgh. Photo: SNS Group Ross Parker

14. Charalampos Mavrias
Capped a dozen times by Greece, formerly of Sunderland and Panathinaikos, had just been released from Rijeka, surely he was going to be a strong addition? Played twice and couldn't seem to get fit. Photo: SNS Group Ross MacDonald

15. Gael Bigirimana
Signed at the end of the 2019 January window as Hibs transitioned from Neil Lennon to Paul Heckingbottom. The former Motherwell man played just once. Photo: SNS Group Craig Foy

16. Chris Maxwell
Signed by Paul Heckingbottom despite the club already having Ofir Marciano. Even started some games over the popular Israeli, bizarrely. Not of the same standard. Photo: Alan Harvey - SNS Group
