Colin Calderwood has told the 30-year-old striker that his contract will not be renewed when it runs out in the summer, as he re-builds the Easter Road squad. Nish, who has only scored one solitary goal this season, is not short of suitors for next season. St Johnstone, Dunfermline, Aberdeen are all interested north of the border, while in in England, League One sides Hartlepool, Tranmere and Bristol Rovers are all said to be interested. Also said to be keen are English League Two sides Port Vale and Crewe Alexandra. Crewe currently already have a former Hibs striker up front, Clayton Donaldson, who is their top goalscorer this season with 23 goals, and could link up with Nish next season. Nish is also still receiving interest from China, but has already turned down TWO moves to the Middle East and isn‘t keen on the move.
