Hibs midfielder Ewan Henderson has joined Belgium Pro League club K. Beerschot V.A. on a permanent transfer, subject to work permit approval. 

The terms of the 24-year-old’s transfer will remain undisclosed, however, the Club received a six-figure fee and a sell-on. 

Henderson joined Hibs in January 2022 from Celtic on loan before the move was made permanent.  

The attacking midfielder made 56 appearances for the Hibees, scoring five goals. 

On his departure, Hibernian FC Head Coach David Gray commented: “I wish Hendo all the best for the future. 

“He showed last season that the style of football in Belgium really suits him and shows off some of his best attributes. I think he will relish a new environment and kick on in his career.” 

Hibernian FC Sporting Director Malky Mackay added: “This deal makes complete sense for both the Club and for Ewan. He performed well in Belgium last season, which has earnt him this move and the opportunity to progress in his career. 

“I’ve known him for a number of years and I wish him nothing but the best for the future.”
