Deadline Day Update:


Hibs forward Jamie Insall has today re-joined East Fife on loan.

The 24-year-old spent last season on loan with the Fife club, scoring 10 goals and helping win the League two title.

Insall has joined the Bayview club on loan until the end of the season.

East Fife manager, speaking to their official website said:

"I am delighted to announce that fans favourite Jamie Insall has agreed to join us once again on loan from Hibernian. 

"Once we realised that Chris Duggan was going to be out for a longer period than expected, I felt it was important to get another striker in and I must thank the Chairman and the Board of Directors for finding the money to secure the signing of Jamie.

"Jamie was very keen to return to East Fife once he knew of our interest and the deal was concluded in less than 24 hours. He needs no introduction to our Supporters and hopefully he will pick up from where he left off last season.

"He has trained with us this week and he will come straight into contention for a starting place in Saturday's game versus Alloa Athletic."
