Chris Dagnall will join Hibs on a short-term deal until the end of the season, subject to international clearance.
The 29-year-old has a wealth of experience at clubs such as Tranmere Rovers, Barnsley and Leyton Orient in England, and, most recently, he has enjoyed time at Kerala Blasters in the Indian Super League.
The Liverpool-born striker told hibernianfc.co.uk, he said: “I’m very excited to be joining the club. I know we are doing really well this season and after coming down to speak to the manager and coaching staff I’m really looking forward to joining in with the lads.
“Hibs are a big club, everyone knows about Hibs. I can see they’ve been doing well and they’re competing at the top of the league with Rangers, Hibs is a team everyone keeps an eye out for.”
“Hopefully the manager sees something in me that the other players haven’t got here and that’s why he is bringing me in.
“You’ll get hard work out of me, I’ll work my socks off in each and every game and hopefully get the goals that I want to get.”
Hibernian Head Coach, Alan Stubbs said: “Chris is a player with a great track record and he has played for a number of clubs, bringing with him a great deal of experience and guile to the team.
“He has played in England at a number of different clubs and played against some very good players, and I believe that his experience can only be beneficial to our squad, and his talent will be a good asset to have as we strive to achieve our goals this campaign.”
John graduated from Telford College in 2010 with an HNC in Practical Journalism and since then he worked for the North Edinburgh News, The Southern Reporter, the Irish News Review and The Edinburgh Reporter. In addition he has been published in the Edinburgh Evening News and the Hibernian FC Programme.
