Hibs defender Oscar MacIntyre has joined Queen of the South on loan for the upcoming 2024/25 season. 

The 19-year-old will join Peter Murphy’s League One side for the duration of the campaign. 

Oscar came through the Hibernian FC Academy, making his senior First Team debut in May 2022. 

The full-back spent the 2023/24 campaign initially out on loan at Queen of the South, before moving to Annan Athletic – managed by Peter Murphy – for the second half of the season. 

Hibernian FC Sporting Director, Malky Mackay said: “This is a good move for Oscar, playing in a competitive league that he knows well. 

“The fact that he has worked with their manager (Peter Murphy) before is a positive and shows that he holds Oscar in high regard. This will give Oscar a good platform to build from and we are hoping he can kick on again this season.” 

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.
