Hibs midfielder Sam Stanton joins Livi on loan

Last updated : 09 January 2016 By Steve Forbes

Hibs midfielder Sam Stanton has joined Livingston on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old started the season in the first team, scoring in the 6-2 defeat to Rangers in the Petrofac Cup, but has fallen out-of-favour as the Hibees steamrolled to 18 games unbeaten.

Stanton will now head to Almondvale for some much needed game time, and hopefully come back to the Hibees in the summer better for it.

He has played 70 games for Hibs, scoring 7 goals, and has been capped by Scotland at U18, U19, & U21 level.

Stanton also had a previous loan spell with Cowdenbeath.

Good luck Sammy.
