Hibernian FC have confirmed that Christian Doidge has joined cinch Premiership side Kilmarnock on loan.

The loan spell for the striker will run until the conclusion of the 2022/23 campaign.

The 30-year-old became a Hibee in June 2019 and has made 118 appearances, scoring a total of 37 goals.

Seven of those appearances have been during this season with Doidge scoring a hat-trick against Clyde in the Premier Sports Cup.

The player will now join up with Derek McInnes at Kilmarnock, who currently sit ninth in the cinch Premiership table – one place and one point behind Hibs.

He will be ineligible to join the Kilmarnock team facing Hibernian FC this weekend.
