We’re only six weeks after the close of the summer transfer window but the club boards will already be looking ahead to the next opportunity to invest in new players.
Nick Montgomery, especially, will be eyeing new talent he can bring in as he looks to create a new identity within the Hibs set-up. The new Hibs manager came in a few weeks into the new season and has so far remained undefeated. He will, however, face an exceptionally tough challenge this weekend as the Easter Road outfit head west to face Rangers and their new boss.
As Hibs and Hearts continue to find consistency in their seasons, there is of course still plenty of opportunity to invest in new players outside of those precious transfer seasons.
The free agent market still continues to offer a plentiful supply of footballers who are yet to find a club. Here are 12 free agents available to Hibs, Hearts and their Scottish Premiership rivals who recently departed the European leagues...
