Shannon Leishman has signed a one-year contract extension through to the summer of 2025.

An ever-present on either flank, Leishman impressed in the latter half of the 2023/24 season and played an instrumental role in Hibs Scottish Cup fourth-round victory over Glasgow City.  

She also scored her first goal of the season against Motherwell in an impressive 5-0 victory and contributed a handful of assists throughout the season. 

A lifelong Hibs fan, Leishman made her debut in 2014 against Rangers, and since that point, has gone on to star in four different cup-winning campaigns, played in the Champions League and achieved her dream of playing under the lights at Easter Road.

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.
