Hibs’ Academy graduate Jamie Gullan has completed a loan move to League One Raith Rovers until the end of the season.

The 19-year-old has made three top-team appearances for Hibs this term and is keen to build on that in Kirkcaldy.

He has enjoyed previous loan stints with Gala Fairydean Rovers and Queen’s Park and was part of the Hibernian Development Squad that won the league and Scottish FA Youth Cup double.

He said: “I’m grateful to both Hibernian and Raith Rovers for agreeing the loan move and I’m looking forward to getting started.

“I don’t expect anything but will be working as hard as I can to hopefully win a place in the first team and take it from there. “I really enjoyed my run-outs with the first team this season and it gives you that desire to get some more minutes under your belt.

“Everyone at Hibs has been really positive about it and I’ve seen boys go out on loan before, make a positive impression, and kick on from there. I’m hoping to do the same and pay back Raith for showing a lot of faith in me.”
