Hibs have today announced the signing of Ross County striker Brian Graham.

The Hibees have been chasing the big forward for a few weeks, and apparently worked hard last night, to get his transfer through in time for him to make the bench against St Mirren today.

28-year-old Graham has signed a two-year-deal at Easter Road and becomes Neil Lennon's fifth summer signing, following the arrivals of Ross Laidlaw, Grant Holt, Ofir Marciano & Andrew Shinnie.

Speaking to the official club website, the 6ft 2in striker said:

“I am delighted to have joined Hibernian.

“I’ve been happy with my pre-season and start, and am looking forward to continuing this at Hibs.

“Everyone knows the size and stature of the club here. Promotion is the number one aim this season and I hope to be able to help achieve this."

Hibs boss Neil Lennon added:

“We’re very pleased to have signed Brian.

“He’s a goalscorer and will give us another option going forward when we’re trying to break teams down.

“We’ve started the season well and the additions of Brian and Andy (Shinnie) will further strengthen our squad.”
