Hibs’ influential defender Jordon Forster is back in training after breaking a foot during training in October.
The 20 year old is hoping to regain match fitness by playing for the Under 20s who have games coming up against Hamilton and Hearts.
Before his injury, Forster was part of a back 3 system along with Paul Hanlon and Liam Fontaine however since then the eam have resorted to a more traditional back 4.
Last season Forster was used at right back by Terry Butcher and ironically that position may be available again after David Gray limped off with a groin injury yesterday.
Speaking to Hibs TV’s Cliff Pike during the half-time show of the Alloa broadcast, Forster said: “I’m happy to say that I’m now back in training and I’m feeling good and strong.
“The manager may want me to play a couple of under-20 games in order to get peroperly back up to speed.
“We’ll have to wait and see, but I’ve spoken with the fitness and medical team and hopefully I’ll get some gametime with the under-20s.
“Hopefully if there are no hiccups and I’ll be back with the first team as soon as possible.”
