Record-breaking Klidje deal 'underpins Hibs desire'
We asked for your views after Hibernian broke their transfer record to sign Togo striker Thibault Klidje from fee is undisclosed, but Hibs' previous record was the purchase of Ecuadorian defender Ulises de La Cruz back in 2001 for a fee of around £700, how some of you reacted:John: Klidje looks a great signing. Pace, power and guile and he's already proven himself in a good league. Watching his highlights there is more than a touch of Martin Boyle about him, which can only be a good thing. Great to see the club showing ambition and backing David Must be some player if Hibs splash that amount of cash on him. Good luck!Disco: It's an ambitious but risky signing. Then again so were Dylan Vente and Elias Melkersen and we made profit on them when it didn't work out. Just need one more striker plus Nectar Triantis and we're good 'Togo'.Mark: I worry a bit about this kind of signing, considering how much money we have wasted since the Gordon family took over. A lot of our more expensive signings haven't really worked out. Hopefully Malky MacKay and Gray know what they are doing here, and at least Gray has shown he can get more out of players than our previous managers. I do wonder why we'd spend £1m or so on a gamble from abroad, though, when we could have had the likes of Sam Dalby for Can only hope he hits the ground running, unlike the other "big" signings we've had in previous seasons. Seen some fans of rival teams laughing about his rating on Fifa, they won't be laughing when he puts a few away against We are winning the This signing underpins our desire to kick on after our great finish last season. The Gordon family have stepped up in my opinion. Very Hopefully the real deal, and not another guy who looks good on a few YouTube videos. But got to give the boy a chance to adapt to Scottish football and the media scrutiny.
