Hibs have today revealed that young defender Josh McCulloch has joined Albion Rovers on loan.
McCulloch, who can also play in midfield has joined the Scottish League Two side until the end of the season.
He is another of the Hibees successful U19 side who went on an impressive European run this season, after winning the Scottish U19 league last season.
McCulloch will also still be available for the Hibees DV squad during the loan deal.
Speaking to the official club website, Hibs youth boss Steve Kean said:
“This is a great opportunity for Josh to go and get regular minutes playing First Team senior football.
“With this loan, he will also be able to play for the Development Squad, which will give him a good opportunity to play two games a week and really accelerate his development between now and the end of the season.”
HIBS-MAD VIEW:
Another exciting youngster going out and getting first team football.
The club has really stepped up it's preperations for the future with regards the U19 side.
They have been brilliant and deserve the success they are getting. Let's hope a move this like this will help them build on it.
