Hibs poised to announce new signing

Hibs are poised to sign Notts County forward Danny Haynes on loan until the end of the season.

The former England Under-19 international travelled to Edinburgh yesterday with his representative, Mark Bennett.

Haynes can play on the wing or up front, signed a three-year contract with County in the summer after leaving Charlton Athletic. He has made 23 appearances for County this season, scoring four goals, but has not started since early December and was placed on the transfer list by manager Shaun Derry earlier this month.

Haynes, who began his career with Ipswich Town and has also played for Millwall, Bristol City and Barnsley, said on social media site Twitter: “Now on route to Scotland. Off on loan to Hibs for the rest of the season.”
