Hibs have today been linked with a bosman summer move for Linfield midfielder Jamie Mulgrew.

The 24-year-old Northern Ireland internationalist is out-of-contract in the summer, and Hibs boss Colin Calderwood is said to be keen to bring him to Easter Road.

Mulgrew won the Linfield Player of the Year 2010, and has also represented Northern Ireland at U21 level.

He also previously played for Linfield’s rivals Glentoran.

It’s thought Hibs will face competition from both Kilmarnock and MLS side Portland Timbers for his signature.
