Last updated : 14 August 2011 By Steve Forbes

Former Manchester Ciy defender Javan Vidal has revealed that he is in talks with a number of clubs - including Hibs.

The 22-year-old was released by City this summer, after speding a number of years with the big spending Mancs.

Vidal also had loan spells with Aberdeen, Grimsby Town and Chesterfield while at the Eastlands, and he has revealed that he has a number of offers on the table.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said:

"I'm in negotiations with two clubs at the minute that I can name and a few others that I can't disclose, so interest has started to pick up a little," he said.

"I'm talking to Hibernian from the SPL and a team in Turkey called Denizlispor, but there are a few League One clubs as well, but I can't name them at the moment.

"I'd be welcome to any offers to be honest because it is all about getting out there and playing regular football again.

"I've been doing my own fitness work over the summer and although it isn't quite the same as doing it with a club, I'm pretty confident that once I've joined a new club I'll be close to challenging for a first-team place.

"I've not had much game time, but the only way to increase that is through competitive matches, so hopefully I can get up to speed in no time."

Vidal is also a former England U19 & U20 international, and could be the answer to the Hibees problem right back position.
