Junior Hoilett has agreed a new deal with Hibs. The Canadian winger has penned a new one-year deal that'll see him remain at the Club until the summer of 2026. Hoilett impressed for the David Gray's side during the 2024/25 campaign, contributing to nine goals (four goals and five assists) in 30 appearances. Two of those assists came against St Mirren in May to help us secure third place in the William Hill Premiership. The experienced forward has now re-joined his teammates in the Netherlands training camp as he prepares for the upcoming campaign. Hibernian FC Head Coach David Gray commented: 'We're delighted that Junior has agreed to stay with us for the upcoming campaign. 'He played an important role for us last season both on and off the pitch. As a player, he provides us with real quality, composure and calmness. As a person, he's brilliant with the lads in the dressing room. He's a role model for the younger players and is always willing to share his experiences and expertise with his teammates. 'We look forward to working with him over the coming season.' Hibernian FC's Sporting Director Malky Mackay added: 'We wanted to give Junior as much time as possible to make a decision on his future due to his own personal circumstances. Junior is a real family man, and we wanted to make sure that not only him, but his family were settled and comfortable as well. 'As well as being a top professional, he's a really good person and his role within our squad last year can't be understated. He made a positive difference to our team on the pitch and our squad off it. 'I'm delighted we are together again and look forward to having another one of our leaders back wearing our badge for the coming season.' Like this: Like Related
