Morais: Heading for Easter Road??

www.Hibernian-mad.co.uk understands that Hibs boss John Collins could be about to add Millwall winger Filipe Morais to his Easter Road squad.

We also understand that he may play against
Middlesbrough in Saturday's friendly.

Morais, 21, is a Portuguese U-21 international and signed for Millwall from
Chelsea when Nigel Spackman took charge at the New Den.

The player has spent some time on loan at MK Dons as well as spending last season on loan at St Johnstone, when he played against Hibs in the CIS Cup Semi Final at Tynecastle. He set up St Johnstone's goal in the Hibees 3-1 win.

Morais graduated through the Chelsea youth system, he was born in Lisbon, but raised in London, before signing for Millwall on a two-year contract in 2006.

He is a pacey winger, who can play on either flank.

The player still has one year left on his contract at the Den, Hibs would probabley have to pay a nominal fee to secure his services.
