Nicky Cadden has been named Hibernian FC Player of the Year for the 2024/25 campaign.
The Hibs left-wing back has won the award in his first season at the Club piping Rocky Bushiri, Martin Boyle, and Nectar Triantis to the prize as voted for by the fans.
Nicky Cadden has been a key player registering 11 goal contributions. The 28-year-old won the SPFL Player of the Month award for December and has played a key role in the 17 match incredible unbeaten run.
It was a successful night for Rocky Bushiri who picked up two separate awards – claiming the Moment of the Season award for his last-minute equaliser against Aberdeen in November, before claiming the Players’ Player of the Year award.
